Deal with bad things?

Deal with bad things?

A Poem by Onlyme

Why do bad things happen?

Why did she have to die
my mother-in-law?

Why do I suffer from anxiety
and stress?

Why did he get cancer?

Oh, why,
why,  why?

If
I could answer
some of my
own questions.

I would be a
complete
and utter smart a*s.

But I can not
answer them.

Only the Big guy above ie God.
If you believe in God.

Or some other greater power
known to man.

I can only presume.
Things happen for a reason.

And eventually,
  I/we will find out that
reason why?
or maybe never.

Until then.
I/We just have to deal
with the present ie now
and get through the tough times ahead.
And as the days and weeks
roll past.

You just get on with it
and deal with it.
Best you can.

And the questions... Why?
become irrelevant.

As you become focused on just
dealing with the facts
of here and now
and not the questions
anymore.

As they
fade and become unimportant
to the bigger picture
of present.

Focusing on now.
