Life certainly has a way of sneaking up on you and biting you on the ass.
Ask anyone who's been fired, who's spouse cheated, or who's had a seriously illness come upon them or a loved one.
Different people will react in different ways. Who, or rather, What's to say HOW we'll handle it.
Will how you were raised have an effect?: Perhaps.
Will the things you learned along the way play a role? Probably.
Will the person standing by your side when "shit happens" have an impact? Likely.
How 'bout the stories you've heard? The things you've seen? the Faith you've adopted?
How 'bout brain chemistry? Genetics? Past traumas? Current stress levels?
Take away one of these things and it probably won't make a big difference in the overall picture, although mental illness will void out everything. Watch out! Don't get a case of the "CRAZIES". Actually, it might not matter what happens if you're out of your mind.
Yeah, Life Intrudes, knocks us on our asses. Will you get up? Will you be stronger as a result? What are our options? Stay down? Give up? Check out? All of the Above? or None of the above? Do you even care?
