Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 THE STORY OF LIFEEverything in life happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck.Sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realised your potential, strength, willpower, or heart.Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.The people you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, help to create who you are and who you become.Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most 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 when you open your heart. If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, butbecause in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become.You never know who these people may be, your neighbour, your co- worker, a long lost friend, or a complete stranger. When you lock eyes with them, you know at that very moment they will affect your life in some profound way.Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and actually listen.Allow yourself to laugh, play, dance, sing; and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, it will be hard for others to believe in you.If you love someone tell him or her, for you never know what tomorrow may have in store. Learn a lesson in life each day that you live. Most importantly give a prayer of thanks daily to our beloved Bhagawan for His never ending Love & Grace. With Him by our sides, we can make anything of our lives as we wish. So let us create our lives and then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets.That's the Story of Life.Om Sai Ram The INTERNET now has a personality. YOURS! See your Homepage.
