Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can.

"Everything happens for a reason."

Is it true or is it just one of those things people say to make you feel better about whatever it is that's going on in life at that particular moment? I don't know...I don't think anybody knows but I can tell you this: Certain things have happened in my life that left me feeling like my whole world was turned upside down. Other situations have confused me, others have made me sad, others have made me feel extremely blessed. Looking back, I now see how everything has fit together. It all makes sense. Don't get me wrong, there are still situations I wish would have turned out differently but overall, I think everything has worked out just the way it was supposed to.
