Everything Happens for a
Reason...

*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
to help you figure out who you
are or who you want to become.
You never know who these
people may be (possibly your
roommate, neighbor, professor,
long lost friend, lover, or even a
complete stranger), but when
you lock eyes with them, you
know at that very moment they
will affect your life in some
profound way.
*And sometimes things happen
to you that may seem horrible,
painful, and unfair at first, but
in reflection you find that
without overcoming those
obstacles you would have never
realized your potential,
strength, willpower, or heart.
Everything happens for a
reason. Nothing happens by
chance or by means of good
luck. Illness, injury, love, lost
moments of true greatness, and
sheer stupidity all occur to test
the limits of your soul. Without
the small tests, whatever they
may be, life would be like a
smoothly paved straight, flat
road to nowhere. It would be
safe and comfortable, but dull
and utterly pointless.
*The people you meet who
affect
your life, and the success and
downfalls you experience, help
to create who you are and who
you become. Even 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,
for they have helped you learn
about trust and the importance
of being cautious to when you
open your heart. If someone
loves you, love them back
unconditionally, not only
because they love you, but
because in a way, they are
teaching you to love and how to
open your heart and eyes to
things. Make every day count.
*Appreciate every moment and
take from those moments
everything that you possibly
can for you may never be able
to experience it again. Talk to
people that you have never
talked to before, and actually
listen. Let yourself fall in love,
break free, and set your sights
high. Hold your 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, it will be hard for
others to believe in you. You
can make of your life anything
you wish.
*Create your own life and then
go out and live it with
absolutely no regrets. Most
importantly, if you love
someone tell him/her, for you
never know what tomorrow
may have in store. And learn a
lesson in life each day and
everyday.

Sure.
