The reasons...

When bad things happen, it's usually easy to get bogged down in the reasons. The why's and the how's of the event. That's exactly where I should find myself this morning while dealing with the aftermath of a theft. But in reality I am in a completely different mental space.

Having been picked pocketed in Clapham, I spent my entire evening and most of this morning sorting through the madness of cancelling cards, requesting new ones and discovering the thief had access to my pin number and has taken a substantial amount from my account.

Even though I am annoyed (not only because I've been robbed but because I wasn't even drunk when it happened) and it would be really easy for me to vent my frustrations in this post, what good would it do me? It would simply leave the small amount of control the thief scarpered with last night in tact and serve no real purpose. No, I would rather forgo the rant and focus on the lessons learnt - that way a negative experience can have positive impact on my life... So the next time shit happens (and it always does) I urge you to do the same.

Legoman out...
