Shikata Ga Nai
Some things cannot be changed.
However, you need not react;
It is nonsensical to do so.
Keep your focus on the things you can change
And let the things that you cannot change go.
Take time to let them roll off your back
And stay peaceful.
Getting injured cannot be helped with cries or screams
And requires the positivity of focusing on rehabilitation.
Naturally, there are many more situations when all you can do is
Accept them with grace and resilience because
“It cannot be helped.”
Shikata Ga Nai.
