There are many things in this unhappy world we cannot alter. We must learn to live with our lot and find peace with ourselves.

Robin Jarvis
About This Quote

When we cannot change a situation or something we cannot do, we should learn to live with it and find peace with ourselves. Although we cannot change the things we cannot control, we can control what we can. We can choose to let it consume us and ruin our lives and happiness, or we can choose to rise above it and handle it as best as we can. You can't always control what happens, but you do have control over how you react to that situation.
