You are exactly right @breathe189!
Just like you said, it all comes down to trust, trust that things will turn out for the best. Because even if there is a lesson to be learned, that is still the best!
Sounds like you have a great and wise friend too 😉💙 🌻
Sometimes in life we don't learn the lessons we need to until we are forced to!
He is a pretty amazing guy! 😊
