Sometimes people come
into your life and you know right away that they
were 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 may be: your
neighbor, child, long lost friend, lover, or even a
complete stranger who, when you lock 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,
will power, 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, illnesses or
relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved
straight flat 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 have 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 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 too. 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 in
it!

As If It Were Your Last…
