What's meant to be will be

I had to remind myself of that tonight. Some things are out of my hands and beyond my control and I just need to let the chips fall where they may. Difficult to do when your heart is hurting and you want something so badly but it's out of your reach. Which reminds me, I was at the grocery store the other day and really wanted these gummy fruit snacks but they were high up and far back on the shelf. I stretched on my tippy-toes but there was no way I could reach them. I felt frustrated and gave up on the damn fruit snacks. Later on I was glad I did because they were pure sugar and high fructose corn syrup and I'm trying to stick to a healthy diet. So maybe this thing I want so badly right now, maybe there's a reason I can't reach it. Maybe it would turn out to be bad for me if I ever got it. Hey, whatever makes me feel better. I can put myself out there but ultimately, what's meant to be will be.
