Sometimes an L is actually a huge win, you just don’t see it yet. The job that seemed perfect for you now, might go through a change in management, creating a hostile environment where there was once warmth. Maybe you’re suppose to meet certain people that you wouldn’t have crossed paths with there. Maybe you’re suppose to start your own business and the job restricts you in ways that make it impossible, or you get a better paying gig.
The same goes for relationships. It could be great now, until a life changing event alters you both and you grow apart. Your “person” could have nefarious ulterior motives, unleashed at the opportune moment. It’s better that it didn’t work before children got involved. Maybe they don’t want kids, but you do, so they lie to keep you until your dream is no longer possible. Look at all you would’ve sacrificed for someone who had no intention of doing the same. Point is there could be a plethora of issues unbeknownst to you, but the universe knows. Taking you down the path that you need, rather than want, for your own good. Be it the home you wanted, or any other missed opportunity, don’t dismiss rejection as a positive. It’s another form of protection.
I wanted my last relationship to work, but all that glitters isn’t gold. Only misery and further abuse would be had there. I wanted the job before Gammeeok, but it wouldn’t have paid as well. A fact that revealed itself after the former position rejected me. Think about it, when’s the last time you were rejected and protected? What did it shield you from? Via: We The Urban
