    This was forwarded to me via e-mail. Thought everyone would
    enjoy reading it here….

    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 or 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 way.

    And sometimes things happen to you
    and at the 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, 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, 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, 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, betrays you or
    breaks your heart, forgive
    them, for they have helped you learn about
    trust and the importance of
    being cautious to who 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 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.

    Create your own life and then go out
    and live it
