Do you feel you are in charge of your life? Have you got your progress all mapped out? What will you do if things don't go the way you want? Have you considered that in the final analysis your life is in God's hands? You need to go along with what he plans for you and not resist Him. I wanted to get a music degree when I was in my twenties. I went to university but had bouts of depression and two years later left that all behind. I did gain a teaching diploma for the violin and taught that until retirement, but I could not teach music as a subject in school. I didn't spend a lot of time regretting it, but got on with what I felt God wanted me to do. If you can only stop resenting God's change of plan for you, you can soon find what He plans is far more fulfilling. God's way for you is the best way.
I have written in previous posts about disasters. In the case of Concorde, decisions by people, plus other factors were directly to blame for the event. In the case of the Penlee disaster it may have been avoided if someone had made a better choice in the time beforehand and as a consequence brave men and the ship's crew and the captain and his family died. 9/11 was certainly the result of wicked men committing a terrorist act, but even in this there was heroism notably by another Cornish man, Rick Rescorla who helped many to safety and left it too late to help himself. In situations like this we see what the human spirit is capable of both good and evil. What of disasters that come on people because of the earth restless movement of tectonic plates. Often people live near volcanoes because the land is rich and fertile and they have the chance of a better life there when the volcano is resting. We cannot blame them for that but sometimes people become complacent...
