The Story of 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,
To 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
(Possible your roommate, neighbor, co-worker, long lost friend, lover or even a complete stranger)

But when you lock your eyes with them,
You know that at that very moment they will affect your life in some profound way,
And sometimes things happened to you
That may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first,
But in reflection, you find that without overcoming those obstacles,
You will never have realized your potential,
Strength, will power, of heart

Everything happens to you for a reason,
Nothing happens by chance or by means of good 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 affects your life
And the success and downfalls you experienced,
Help to create who you are and who you become
Even the bad experiences can be learn from, in fact,
They are probably the most poignant and important ones,
If someone hurts you, betrays you, or broke your heart,
Forgive them
For they have help you to 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 everyday 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 your self,
It would be hard for others to believe in you

You can make your life anything you wish,
Create you 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.

That’s the STORY OF LIFE.
