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?
