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
help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who
these people may be but when you lock eyes with them, you know that every
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 have never realized your potential, strength, will power 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 occurs to test the limits of your soul. Without these small
tests, life would be like a smoothy 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
who 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
to. If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because
they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and open your heart
and eyes to little things.
Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything
that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.
Talk to people 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, no one else
will believe in you. Create your own life and then go out and live it.
“…beauty is life when life unveils her holy face, But you are life and you are the veil. Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in the mirror, But you are eternity and you are the mirror.”
