~ The
Important Things In 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,
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.
Was
it worth it?
If you fill your heart
with regrets of
yesterday
and
the worries of tomorrow,
you have no today to be
thankful for.
