Life and the Universe have a funny way of bringing us to the exact people, places, circumstances, and messages that our souls are calling for at the right time. What appears as an accident in our lives is not always what it seems. Nothing happens by chance, and there are no coincidences. We begin to understand that there’s a reason for the way our life is unfolding even though it may not always be immediately apparent. 

I have learned that what seems like a curse at the moment can actually be a blessing, and that what seems like the end of the road is actually just the discovery that we are meant to travel down a different path.

I have learned that no matter how difficult things seem, there is always hope. And I’ve learned that no matter how powerless we feel or how horrible things seem, we can’t give up.

We have to keep going. Even when it’s scary, even when all of our strength seems gone, we have to keep picking ourselves back up and moving forward, because whatever we’re battling at the moment, it will pass, and we will make it through.

Because life is a big and sweet mystery… ♥
