| 'Everything happens for a reason' or 'Shit Happens'? Which do you believe? I tried all my life to believe in the former, but I find it problematic. It's easy to believe if: something good happens, you get a good result from something you initially thought was bad, or you learn some type of valuable lesson or something else you wouldn't have if not for the bad occurance/experience.
But sometimes trying to believe this leaves me searching for some good or meaning when I can't find any. And I feel I'd be better off if I said 'Shit happens, now how to get over it and move on?'
What do you think?
