The Missing Piece

Have you ever done a jigsaw puzzle? If you have, it might have happened that once, one piece was missing. How disappointing! You worked carefully, you took your time, you proceeded successfully till the 'dramatic' moment when you realized that you couldn't complete your endeavor because of that missing piece. You looked everywhere, in case it had been misplaced, to no avail. It just wasn't there. What a perfect parallel with Life! You had a plan, everything was perfectly clear in your mind, you made all the necessary arrangements, you took the first step and proceeded enthusiastically. Nevertheless, when you approached the completion of our project, you realized that the result was not what you had expected. What went wrong? Was it a mistake of yours? Of someone else's? You can't find out. So, what can you do? Only one thing: accept it and move on. Stop brooding, complaining, trying to find someone's fault at all costs. Life doesn't always work according to your 'rules'. It has its own, and you can't do anything but comply. For your own peace of mind.
