Everyday
Life
Sometimes people come into your life
and you know right away that they are meant to be there, they serve some sort of
purpose, teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are and who you want to
become.
You never know
who these people might be: your neighbour, child, long lost friend, lover, or
even a complete stranger who, when you lock your eyes with them, you know at
that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound
way.
And sometimes
things happen to you and at the time they seem painful and unfair, but in
reflection you realize 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 or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments
of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul.
Without these small tests, whether they be events, illness or relationships,
life would be a smooth paved straight road to nowhere, safe and comfortable, but
dull and utterly pointless.
The people you
meet who affect your life and the successes and downfalls you experience create
who you are, and even the bad experiences can be learned from, in fact they are
probably the poignant and important ones.
If someone hurts
you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them, for
they 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 because they are
teaching you to love and opening
your heart and eyes to things you would
have never seen or felt without
them.
Make everyday
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 either. You can
make of your life
anything you wish. Create your own life, and then go out
and live
it!
