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.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
