Things Happen.

When I walk through the halls all I see is
 inspirational quotes talking about life.

When I listen to a song on the radio all I hear is
 lyrics about smiling and being positive.

When I see people in class all I see is
 people watching out and helping others.

When I see people struggling all I see is
family and friends there for support.

It's interesting that the day I sat and thought to myself..
Wow. Life is hard today. 

Was the day that we had a benefit for a
family member suffering from MS.

Watching him and how he could barely walk.

Watching him smile as his friends and family walked in to see him.

Watching him publicly thank his wife
and express his love to her with tears in his eyes. 

Brought tears to my own eyes.

I may not know him all that well. 

But he said something of huge significance to me.

He said, to everyone, this very sentence: 

"Life is Journey, and this is part of my journey."

He continued by simply saying..

"Thank you for being a part of it and for supporting me through this."

He may not know it. 

But he truly touched my life.

I look at him as a huge example.

He made me realize, yet again, how blessed I am.

He made me realize that everyone is a hero and can be an example.

How everyone has different trials.. for a reason.

How everyones lives aren't perfect.

Some may seem harder than others.

Some may seem easier than others.

But we all go through what we need to go through.

and it all hurts to us just the same.

Thank you for your example.

Thank you for your radiating smile and confidence that everything will be okay in your own life.

Thank you for reassuring me that things happen.

and that things happen for a reason.

I know there are people all over the world like this. 

Who go through something that isn't necessarily fair.

Divorce. Abuse. Rape. Death. Health Problems. Disorders.

the list could go on and on.

When you see these people..

Learn from them.

they are strong people.

We all have problems.

we are all strong people.

I believe that.

"I don't believe in luck.

I don't believe in coincidence.

I believe that everything happens for a reason.

I believe good things fall apart, 

so better things can fall together."
