If we are too attached to things going our way or people, approving of us, we will be in emotional pain. The solution is to let go and embrace reality. 
Gratefulness helps and rejoice and be in awe of sunshine and others in our life. Balances our wants and expectations to a healing level. And letting go dropping into our hearts lean into the Holy Spirit and seek what can I exchange for this need with him. Sometimes there is peace or love he fills us with. So your covered with beautiful gifts of higher goodness. God bless.
