Describe an event you initially thought was bad but turned out okay.
Funny how this saying is one of my mantras that I usually tell other people, especially my children. I can think of several things where I've had to choke up this quotation and keep it moving.
A couple of years ago I walked away from my job to start my own workforce development program for the state of kentucky. However, the program wasn't funded for 15 months and I had to do odd jobs wherever I could find them to keep my house. I thought at the time that I would become homeless but... it all worked out fine, I'm still in my house.
I can say that from every experience I've had so far, I've tried to learn a lesson so as to not make the same mistakes repeatedly. Never underestimate the power of karma in your life. Sometimes the good you do now may not come back for years, but as long as you continue to do good things, good things will happen for you.

Luck of the Irish!
You've just found a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow! What do you do with it?
If I were to find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow I would do all sorts of exciting things with my family and some friends. I would take my children, mother, sister and her children on a trip around the world. We would visit the different countries, enjoying sight-seeing and food tasting of the other cultures in the world. After my trip around the world, I would buy me a brand new home, nothing fancy but a nice 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 car garage home in a new subdivision out in the Fern Creek area, I have been looking at homes off Seatonville Road for almost two years now. I would also buy both my daughters nice starter homes since they have no children I wouldn't have to worry about grandchildren. I would also pay for both my girls' college education in cash out right. I would purchase four new vehicles, one for me, one for my mother, and one each for my daughters. After purchasing the items I've mentioned, I would maybe buy special gifts for some of my friends who have really been there for me in the past, nothing too lavish just something to show appreciation and love. I would, of course, invest a large sum to live off of for the remainder of my life.
