S#*t Happens
It is a popular albeit coarse phrase in our lives. But “s#*t happens” would not have survived in our everyday vocabulary if there wasn’t some truth to what it means.

“The test of success is not what you do when you’re on top.
Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.”
— George S. Patton
Let’s face it. By the time you’re 50, you’ve experienced some pain, maybe a lot of pain in your life.
You lost a loved one.
Someone betrayed you.
You got a divorce.
You faced major health issues.
You got fired from your job.
Or you went bankrupt.
All of which is your basic “Who’s Who” of s#*t happens. But the truth is, facing those challenges is just part of being a human.
Not a single one of us 38 million boomer males has escaped all of those life humbling hurdles. Not a single one.
And yet you’re still standing and breathing today.
So please, recognize this. Acknowledge it. In fact, revel in it. Accept it as part of the learning process of your life. Which made you a more understanding person in the process. Because whether you want to admit
or not, you have a gained a ton of wisdom thanks to that, ahem, s#*t.
