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, if they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. If someone hurts you, betrays you , or breaks you heart, forgive them. For they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to.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. 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, no one else will believe in you either.Work hard at what you like to do and try to overcome all obstaclesLaugh at your mistakes and praise yourself for learning from themPick some flowers and appreciate the beauty of natureSay hello to strangers and enjoy the people you knowDon't be afraid to show your emotions laughing and crying make you feel betterLove your friends and family with your entire being they are the most important part of your lifeFeel the calmness on a quiet sunny dayFind a rainbow and live your world of dreams always remember life is better than it seems
