Tomorrow Is Not Promised
Sometimes
people
come
into your life
and
you know
right
away that
they
were meant to be there,
they
serve some sort of purpose,
teach
you a lesson
or help
figure out who you are
and
who you want to become.
You never
know who
these
people may be:
your
neighbor, child, long
lost
friend, lover, or even
a complete
stranger
who,
when you lock
eyes
with them,
you
know at that very
moment
that they
will
affect your life
in some
profound way.
And sometimes
things
happen
to you
and
at the time they
seem
painful and unfair,
but
in reflection you realize
that
without over
coming
those obstacles
you
would have
never
realized
your
potential strength,
will
power, or heart.
Everything
happens for a reason.
Nothing
happens by chance
or by
means of good or bad luck.
Illness,
injury, love, lost
moments
of true greatness
and
sheer stupidity
all
occur to test the
limits
of your soul.
Without
these small tests,
whether
they be events,
illnesses
or relationships,
life
would be like a smoothly
paved
straight flat road to nowhere,
safe
and comfortable,
but
dull and utterly pointless.
The people
you meet
who
affect your life
and
the successes and
downfalls
you experience
create
who you are,
and
even the bad experiences
can
be learned from,
In fact,
they are probably
the
poignant and important ones.
If someone
hurts you, betrays
you
or breaks your heart,
forgive
them,
for
they have helped you
learn
about trust
and
the importance of
being
cautious to
whom
you open your heart...
If someone
loves you,
love
them back unconditionally,
not
only because
they
love you,
but
because they are
teaching
you to love
and
opening your heart
and
eyes to things
you
would have never
seen
or felt without them.
Make
every day count.
Appreciate
every moment
and
take from it everything
that
you possibly can,
for
you may never be
able
to experience it again...
Talk
to people you have
never
talked to before,
and
actually listen,
let
yourself fall in love,
break
free and set your sights high...
Hold
your head up
because
you have
every
right too.
Tell
yourself you are a
great
individual and
believe
in yourself...
for
if you don't
believe
in yourself,
no one
else will believe
in you
either.
You
can make of your
life
anything you wish.
Create
your own life
and
then go out and live in it!
"Live
Each Day As If
It Were
Your Last...
Tomorrow
is Not Promised"
