Have you ever sat in your room, staring at the ceiling, listening to music wondering how many other people in the world are doing the exact same thing? The world is huge, holding roughly 7.347 billion people, yet the world is small enough for you to meet new people every day. But out of those 7.347 billion people, how many people do you think are sitting in their room, starting at their ceiling, listening to music, wondering if you are doing the same thing?

Think of this world, think of what's laid out in front of you. At any given moment, something or someone may come into your life and make you wonder completely how this world could be so big and yet small enough that this could happen. Out of 7.347 billion people, how come this particular person came into your life, and why are they living where they are, and how did you get the pleasure of meeting them?

I am in no way a religious person. I go to church on the major holidays because that's what I am supposed to do. I pray when I am having a rough day, because that's what you're told will help. However, with the world being so large, I can only assume that there is some higher force of power working when you meet people. For instance, you can be on a trip abroad and meet someone from your hometown that you've never met before. You can meet someone on the internet that lives another state away and instantly become close friends. You can meet someone that completely changes your ideas and beliefs and challenges your views.

It makes you think. It makes you ponder. How can this world be so huge and still you're meeting the people you are to meet. Why are they in your life and why were they put there? That's what has me thinking. Out of 7.347 billion people in the world, how did I end up meeting someone that only lived an hour away because a friend added me to a group? What purpose is there for this? What is the ending outcome? Until we get to whatever the outcome truly is, I am going to enjoy the friendship because this person came into my life when I needed it the most, and I will never not question why I was blessed with such an amazing individual.

The world is so large but you meet the people that you are intended to meet. Some people will become a lesson and some will become a blessing. You can't choose who becomes what, as that is not your place. But trust the world and never feel like the world is against you. There are 7.341 billion people on this Earth that you have yet to meet.
