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, co-worker, 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 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, 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 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 
or her, for you never know what
     tomorrow may have in store. 

     And learn a lesson in life each day that you live.
