Everything happens for a reason.

June 30, 2005

Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they
were meant to be there…to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson
or help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know
who these people may be but you lock eyes with them, you know that very
moment that they will affect your life in some profound way.
And sometimes things happen to you at the time that may seem horrible,
painful and unfair, but in reflection you realize that without
overcoming those obstacles you would never realize your potential, strength, will
power or heart.
Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means
of luck. Illness, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer
stupidity all occur to test limits of your soul.
Without these small tests, life would be like a smoothly paved,
straight,  flat road to nowhere safe and comfortable but dull and utterly
pointless.
The people you meet affect your life. The successes and downfalls that
you experience can create whom you are, and the bad experiences can be
learned from. In fact they are probably the most poignant and important ones.
If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them
because they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being
cautious to whom you open your heart.
If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because
they love you, but also because they are teaching you to love and open your
heart and eyes to little things. Make every day count. Appreciate
everything that you possibly can, for you may never experience it
again.
Talk to people whom you have never talked to before, and actually
listen.
Let yourself fall in love, break free and set your sights high. Hold
you head up because you have every right to.
Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for
if you don’t believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you. Create
you own life and then go out and live it.
Share this with anyone whom you believe has made a difference in your
life!
