Have you ever had the situation where something happened—something happened that you did not want to happen or something that would make you unhappy, angry, or sad but you did not find out about it until a day, a week, a month, or even years later? But then, you found out. You found out but it is too late to stop it from happening, as it has already occurred. What do you do then? What can you do then?
 
There’s the old saying, “Ignorance is bliss.” And, maybe that’s true. What you don’t know, you don’t know, and if you don’t know about it, you can’t know about it. Thus, it, (that situation), can cause you no discomfort. But, that does not change the fact that it did happened.
 
Does not knowing about something change the fact that something did happen?
 
When these, “Find out,” situations do occur, there is the mindset that witnesses you taking the high road of the psychological/philosophical perspective and just see it for what it was, allow it to be what it became, and not allow it to control your emotions and make you sad or angry or whatever other emotion the happening did conjure up. But sometimes, that is hard. What previously occurred, and with your finding out about it well after the fact, sometimes you need to express your displeasure in whatever way that is most obtainable.
 
Mostly, from my experience(s), there is very little that you can do about life-things like this. It’s not like you can write a Yelp review about the situation or the person or the whatever in order to release your displeasure.
 
In all of these cases, I believe we are all left with the question, the question of what to do. I think the hardest part becomes accepting the fact that the reality is, there is really nothing that we can do about it. At least nothing regarding changing the reality of what was lived.
 
Life is this strange place. Hopefully, your life will go along fine, and you will encounter no road bumps.  But, the reality of the reality is, there may be some hazards along your path. When they occur in the moment, you can deal with them in the moment. But, when you find out about them later, then what? You can’t change them. All you can do is to hopefully find a way to not let them damage your life any more than they already have.  That is not right. That is no real answer. But, that seems to be the only conclusion that can be concluded.
