Goals and Beliefs

I believe that everything happens for a reason, whether we intentionally made something happen through our choices or not.  We cannot control how others interact with us and what they do.  We can't control the disasters that come into our lives that we had nothing to do with.  However, we can control our reactions to the events that happen to us.  We have a choice on how we handle our life situations.  I believe that everything that happens to us has a purpose that we need to discover.  Events don't just happen to happen.  If there is a reason for everything, there is a reason you are experiencing what you are experiencing.  The answer may not be obvious.  The answer may not even come until years down the road.  But, answers do come; we will know why things happen.  The answers we receive, the discoveries that we make, may not be what we wanted to learn or what we thought we learned, but we still learn them.  We still grow.

My life is not unique with what I have experienced and the lessons I have learned are not unique either but, they are unique to me and have made me who I am.

 I am making the journey through life one day at a time.
