Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they are meant to be there. They serve some sort of purpose, to 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 roommate, neighbor, professor, long lost friend, lover or even a complete stranger, who, when
you lock eyes with them, you know that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound ways.

And sometimes things happen to you and at that time, they may seem horrible, painful and unfair, but in reflection, you realize that without overcoming those obstacles, you would have never realized your potential, your 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 if they be events, illness or relationships, life would be a smoothly paved or straight flat road to nowhere. Safe and comfortable, but
dull and utterly pointless.

The people you meet who affected your life and the successes and downfalls you experience, they are the ones who create who you are. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. Those lessons are the hardest and probably the most important ones.

If someone hurts you, betray you or breaks your heart, forgive them, for they have helped you to learn about trust and the
importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart to. 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 everyday count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything you possibly can, for you may never experience it again. Talk to people whom 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 your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.

People are like teabags. You have to put them in hot water before you know how strong they are.
