What happened to me?

When something unpleasant happened, I always ask myself "What is wrong with me?"

But instead of asking myself that, I have learnt to ask myself this instead: "What happened to me?"

This shifts the perspective right away. After asking myself this several times in a row "What happened to me?" I feel so much better.

I do not consider myself a problem anymore. It is what happened to me was the problem and I cannot control what happened to me! Especially when I was a kid!!!
