Why Me?

I don’t know why babies are born with AIDS, young people get killed in tragic accidents, or the Cubs can’t win a World Series. But I do believe there are blessings in every challenge, and lessons, growth and ultimately prosperity in what they bring us.

After experiencing a loss, you may be asking yourself, “Why has this happened to me?”

The answer to the “why me” question is twofold. First, perhaps there is no answer to that question. And second, you are too close to your loss right now to know the answer. While these answers don’t provide much comfort, some solace might be had in knowing that we are all a small part of a much grander universe and that, with time, your loss will take its proper place.

Perhaps, too, the better question (or questions) to ask after a loss might be:

•“How will this help me live more fully knowing that my time is limited too?”

•“How will this help me contribute to the greater good for all people?”

•“How will this make me become a more loving person?”
