Importance of people coming in our lives... a reason, a season or a lifetime..

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 neighbour, 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 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.
You cannot do kindness too soon because
you never know how soon it will be too late...

Create your own life
and then go out and live it!!!
