Hello Doris Day fan.

In speaking to a friend .. a comment they made really made me think. If it doesn't really happen, I guess it wasn't meant to be.I remember coming to this conculsion that good things were never meant to happen in my life. I deep down believed that everyone I met was going to do something to hurt me and I was terrified of people. And strangely enough life gave me what I believed would happen. Everything that could go wrong in my life did go wrong.I think things happen in our lives for a reason.There was a reason why I moved to Ohio.I needed to start fresh in a place where no one knew my past. This place has been a miracle for me.I've learned so much about accepting and being accepted.
I've learned so much about not having to pretend everything's ok. Not expecting things to go wrong. And most importantly I've learned that good things can and do happen for me. I've learned to expect life is going to treat me well. Not perfectly but oeverall well.Nothing is ever meant to be or not meant to be I don't think.. it is what we believe it will be. I believe there are lessons we need to learn and I think that truly my lesson in this life is patience which I suck at.The funniest part of that is that I can be patient with almost anything if it doesn't matter to me. The things that count for most I am least patient about.
There were reasons I lived through really hard times.....that reason was perhaps I needed to learn how to be more positive. I needed to expect good things to happen to and for me. I needed to believe that I believe them.

I really believe everything happens for a reason...just not the reasons we might want or think...I also believe that everyone comes into our lives and may leave for a reason...if you look at all of it...you will see the lessons....even if it's only to get you to take a deeper look inside yourself to see what it is that needs changing or healing...these things bring us closer I think to the things that we really want in life.....once we learn to be happy with who we are and what we have and realize we are in the places we are meant to be for that moment!!!!!

Good for you!! You get out of life what you put into it. Sometimes really bad things happen to really nice people. It's just life! Hopefully we eventually come out as better/stronger people. The one thing it definitely does is to change your value system; whats important and what isn't

Daniel4021: Does anyone think this is true? I think it's because of chioces we make.. what we may or may not allow.. When you hear someone say or even we say ourselves, it wasn't meant to be, it like we are saying there is some higher power that makes these decisions as to what will be, and what won't.. I don't mean just relationships, it could be anything.. What do all of you think?
History repeats...

Yes, I believe this also...Shelley make a good point here...We may not understand it at the time, but I believe there was a reason...
God works in mysterious ways...
One thing I try to remember...a mistake isn't always a bad thing...as long as we learn from it, and try not to make the same one again...JMO

Hey g/f...Yes I agree...learning is the best part so we don't repeat the same mistakes for sure...

Shelly, I saw one of your posts yesterday, I think it was in one of riyas threads.. something about regreating not saying what you should have saud to someone when you had the chance.. What you said really made me think.. I just don't remember where you posted it.. I was going to respond, but got involved in doing other things, those words you said should never be forgoten..

Does anyone think this is true? I think it's because of choices we make.. what we may or may not allow.. When you hear someone say or even we say ourselves, it wasn't meant to be, it like we are saying there is some higher power that makes these decisions as to what will be, and what won't.. I don't mean just relationships, it could be anything.. What do all of you think?

This is just my opinion based on my past experiences...
I DO think things happen or do NOT happen, for a reason...we may not completely understand it at the time, but it'll be made clear for us in time...
And yes, I believe our choices factor into this also...if something...let's say a relationship didn't work out, even though it had been attempted several times, for whatever reasons...Obviously it just wasn't meant to be or happen...
Time for closure and moving on...
