Everything Happens for a Reason

Everything happens for a reason

Do you believe that everything happens for a reason? I don't want to think of the what ifs or should I have done that? On July 1,2017 I was laying on the grass during that little storm we had. I faintly looked up at the sky while it was pouring down rain. it was hard to see while I looked up at the trees and imagined what if. My car was giving me issues. The one weekend I actually had plans. I was thinking was it meant to be? Why am I getting to having bad luck. Why me? I ask myself continuously what makes this world IT. Why are we forced to do certain things that may end up to be good or even great and some you need to deal with the consequences. Why do we have a voice in our head? How is our body working? Why do we meet certain people that once we're total strangers who became someone you can't live without? Why do we choose certain things? Why do we like certain people? Why do we dislike certain people? Why do we grow up to be certain people? Why this why that? Why does medicine help us get better? Why is the world like this? Why is each invention different but known to do great things? Why is the color blue,blue and not brown? Who made these names for these certain colors? Why are our parents our parents? It's crazy how this world is made. I have so many questions that are unanswered. But the same questions that are coming through my mind is, everything happens for a reason. Some things happen that you expect to happen and some things happen unexpectedly. We don't always choose what we want to happen. We just go with the flow. These questions often pop up in my head but strangely as far back as I can remember, when I was just a little girl I had all these questions I used to ask my parents and they never had a good answer. They always said "I'm not sure" or " I don't know" but when I started to get older and older I decided to stop asking my parents these crazy questions because they obviously gave me an answer I didn't want to actually hear. That's when google came into my life. Shockingly my mom was shocked I knew how to work a computer. Most technology came easy for me, especially phones. But over the years I came true to myself that I won't be able to find out every single question roaming through my mind. Which I came to accept that. I 100 percent believe that everything happens for a reason. Do you? Do you believe that every bad situation turns into a good one? I'm aware that everyone's minds think different and occasionally think the same. We all have different ideas. We all like different things. Nobody is the same. I mean it's rare who likes everything you like. Nothing's impossible. But after 20 years of life, certain moments make me believe that everything happens for a reason.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
