Life.......

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 – a roommate, a 
neighbor, a professor, a friend, a 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. 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. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and 
sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. 
Without these 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 sometimes the most 
important ones. If someone loves you, give love back to them in whatever 
way you can, 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. 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 whom you open 
your heart. 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 listen to what 
they have to say. 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 anything you wish of your life. Create your 
own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no 
regrets. And if you love someone tell them, for you never know 
what tomorrow may have in store. Learn a lesson in life each day that you live! Today is the tomorrow you were worried about yesterday. Think About it? Was it worth it?
