[quote]I know now that this universal "Why Me?" when misfortune strikes is not really a question but a cry of shock and outrage at the unfairness of life. ...The Answer to "Why Me?" is YES. ... Reframe loss as possibility. See yourself not as a Victim but as a Survivor. ...Let Go of Who you Were and Become More of Who You are. Acceptance means letting go- letting go of the way you have always been or thought your world would always be.
