The majority of things that happen are because of our acts, only a very small % happens without our involvement.
If we do it for a reason then yes otherwise no.

I absolutely believe everything happens for a reason. We may not know what the reason is.

Isn't life the reason. Everything happens for the experience and the lesson we are here to learn

yes, I believe everything happens for a reason.

all the events in my life lead to the position I am in life today.

this is just an example.

without breaking up with an ex boyfriend, I wouldn't have met my toddlers father...and without him, I wouldnt have had her, my life greatest gift. and without all the problems I have faced the last 3 years, I wouldn't have ended up here, where I met new friends and perhaps a new special person.

sometimes bad things happen and you can't help but asking yourself why? what have I done to deserve this?
the fun thing is, that you don't ask yourself this question when everything goes well.

and when bad things happen, i think it is best to just let it happen and afterwards count your blessings. and maybe, something that was bad in the beginning, turned out to be the best thing ever happening to you.

I think life unfolds as it goes. For every action, there is a reaction. Its based on the choices we make. Thats hopefully based on the goodness in our hearts. I think that ultimately determines whether we have good lives or not. wine

I believe we are given changes....a path,which road we choose on that path is up to us.Some times we might take a wrong turn and have to find our way back to the right path, or the path that's right for us at that time in our lifeswave
