The Mysteries of Life..

I've talked to a lot of my close friends lately... and it seems that each one I talk to is going through some life changing situation:
#1) lost their job. They are 60... and need to find a new one
#2) lost their job... it was their fault.. they did some things they weren't supposed to do, and they are struggling with that a lot...
#3) marriage problems (2 friends)
#4) struggled to get pregnant, then when they did get pregnant... there are some complications with the baby..
#5) almost DIED over Christmas break due to an embolism
#6) House almost burnt down, and has been preggo and not able to live (nest) in her own home for over 3 months!


I keep thinking... so when is it my turn... when does real life find me and mess up my little world?!?! I know God provides. and in the end God knows the best for us all.... But I guess the age old question is... why does there have to be so much suffering?!?! More importantly.. why do some of the people I love the very most have to hurt SO much.. and there really isn't a whole lot I can do to make it better?

Maybe share some GOOD things that are going on...
