Personal Thoughts

I've learned to truly believe that everything that happens in my life or in anyone else's life happens for a reason. And whatever that reason might be, it always seems to be for the better. I believe that when someone comes across a hardship, it only makes the person stronger and in the end, he/she always ends up learning a great deal about him/herself and/or about life. I really believe that "bad things happen to good people". These "bad things" have made me into such a stronger person and I believe that every "bad" experience I had to deal with in the past has shaped me into the person I am today. I think people really need to believe that

I've also come to believe that in order to forgive someone for doing something wrong to me, I need to forgive myself first and then think forgive the other person. It doesn't make sense to forgive someone else when I have trouble letting go of something I did wrong. It would also make sense for me to say that when two people are in a fight, it's not just the ONE person who made a mistake. Both people are always at faults and I think people need to reflect on their actions first before pointing fingers at anyone else.

Carpe Diem. This quote helps me to not take life for granted and just live my life to the fullest everyday. It gets hard at times but I believe in taking chances because like people say, "tomorrow is not promised".
