Have you ever felt like you've been on the wrong side of
Murphy's Law? It's real, it's grimey, and I feel Murphy (whoever that may be)
has a conspiracy.
For those that are unfamiliar with Murphy's Law (Laws), here
they are:
Two notable ones are "anything that can go wrong, will
go wrong" and "The other line always moves faster." These laws
are basically made to play into everyday scenarios, showing what can and often
does happen.
Now one should not blame Murphy's Law when in turn is their
fault. If they gain 15 pounds but all they eat is fast food and ice cream,
then, well, it's not Murphy's Law. If you get fired from your job but you are
lazy, always show up late, and disrespect your employer, that's also not
Murphy's Law.
Murphy's Law in a way ties in with good luck and bad luck. I
believe more in blessings and being blessed than luck. However I do believe in fate
and fate cannot be avoided. Often times we do everything we can but are still
let down. This can or cannot be due to Murphy's Law.
It also boils down to being prepared, and watching out for
every possible scenario and situation. That would be part of Murphy's Law, and
what makes it so real.
Sometimes Murphy's Law can actually be funny because the
things it talks about are really practical, common, and make one think.
However, it seems to get me more often than naught.
There are times where I reach ruts in my financial,
romantic, or physical standing and I'm doing everything right. I then chalk it
up to Murphy's Law before sending up a prayer to God asking "Why?"
However, one must have a sound, level mind and a sense of humor to realize that
life is going to happen, and keep going. Therefore, there is no way to stop
life, or Murphy's Law, but to continue moving.
It's still easier to blame Murphy's Law though, although often we should blame the person in the mirror directly in front of us.
