Everything Happens For a Reason

Sometimes, for reasons we think we don't know, things happen. A lot of times we feel they are out of our control. I think it is much easier that way, to put the blame on fate and say that what happened was not any of our fault.

But is fate really something that happens in the snap of a finger, or is it a build up of events that led you to that one moment in your life that you felt was out of your hands?

We don't have to be surprised by fate - when all along we're wrapped up in that cozy thought bubble, thinking everything is happening the way they are supposed to. The only thing we have to do is always be aware of things outside this bubble. Always think that the future lies in what you do today. The bubble isn't there to protect you. The bubble is just there to keep you going, to make you strong despite all the big rocks that lay ahead of you.

We can control our fate. We just have to be mindful of it everyday, in the littlest things that we do. Fate doesn't happen overnight. It is the series of steps that we take, until finally we reach our destination.

Things happen for a reason. Maybe not in the way we planned it, but always in the way we made it. It is our choice, it is our own, and we have to own up to it. If we don't want fate to catch us from behind, then we do our best for there to be no reason for surprises.
