What you resist persists
and all things happen for a reason.
I know that and it comes naturally for me to be optomistic, because even though I may not be aware right away of the reason for something happening, I will see it eventually. Worrying or getting upset over thigns that happen in my life would lessen the opportunity for me to gain from those experiences. Instead, I accept the event/experience, see why it is happening, and what I made contribution to the cause of the event or experience. I keep observing, but also giving thanks for what I have in my life now.
It's not per-say "for the best"- because that is an opinion- a relative term. You could say that all things happen for a reason, and all things do work out. You need to know the cold to know hot, etc.
