Rejected and out of control??? Alot of us have been there. It is when you feel like your life is out of control and out of your hands. You can get overwhelmed and freak out. Or get in the bed and close the curtains and never come out. We have all been there. No, life is always not smooth....God didn't mean for it to be that way...unfortunatelyl. I get on that rejected kick alot.
I feel like everyone is against me or doesn't really love me. I feel like my kids treat me with disrespect and don't appreciate me. I feel like my opinions don't matter to anyone and that I am not worth loving. Yep, other people feel rejection. And it is hard. Very. I try to look at all the good things in my life when I start getting negative like this. I write down my blessings and the nice things that I have. I write down what I am grateful for. Take a self esteem class...I need to...I have never been taught to think positively....that is my problem. My parents were always judgemental and controlling and negative....so I inherited that attitude. And just when I think my life takes a turn, BAM--somebody or something feels like rejection again. My dad was an alcoholic and sexually abused me so my self esteem is a big issue with me. I suggest you try counseling or church or both.
Love ya, and be strong! I'll pray for you..and me :)

Hey , have you heard the term "swings and roundabouts" . sometimes you are up and other times you are down. It all depends on your attitude to life and others around you (i.e extrovert or introvert) , we cannot all be the same. I have suffered some appauling things at work and have been 'side-lined' , but so what. Take your time to review things and don't have any 'knee-jerk' reactions , if you have someone you can really trust , I mean really trust , ask to have a chat in secret , they might have an answer that you would never have thought of. If you can help it , don't 'bottle' it all up. Never go it alone , cos you will always get the same answers time and time again. Assess the situation , take a deep breath , if you have to speak your mind , so be it. I don't have a competitve nature and never 'ran with the gang' (so to speak) and I find it hard being heard.

Life is never always smooth and in control, even for folks that have everything pulled together. Life itself is full of alot of ups and downs. There is always one problem after another. The deal is, to take a deep breath and only solve one problem at a time. If you try to solve all your problems at once, you will be spread to thin. When things come up think about the worst that can happen and the best thing that can happen and get on it.

Life is never going to be simple, easy and always smooth and in control for anyone. However, out of control is not a good place to be, one must learn to roll with the punches and take each task at hand. Do your best and be done with it. You can only do what you can do and doing your best should be accepted as enough. I think if life were easy every day and everything ran smooth we would become lazy and complacent. Good luck and God bless.

Life is occasionally smooth. But usually we go from one problem to the next, it is called living. This is probably the best answer you will get.

Remember heart charts when the line is flat you are dead. Thats simply just like life and human nature.Life can't be in control all the time, all we try to do is to raise its quality. And challenges are needed to give us the success feeling, we are capable feeling.
