5. I don't think it means anything beyond the fact that shit happens.

And it sometimes happens regularly. Sometimes it never seems to stop. Sometimes
it feels as though it is personal, but usually it isn't. Sometimes it's related to choices
we make--and don't anticipate negative consequences--but sometimes it just isn't preventable
unless you make some other kind of choice (I'm thinking along the lines of relationship, job,
etc where the bad stuff that happens seems to arise out of the relationship).

All that said, you are not alone. Sometimes the order of the world seems to be one step forward
and two steps back, or, if lucky, two steps forward and one step back.

I hope that whatever has happened will not keep you down for long and that you will find a solution.

Hang in there! And come here to blow off some steam or ask for ideas if that will help.
