Everything happens for a reason.
No, it doesn’t.
All that happens is just that:
It happens.
Shit happens, stuff happened.
But let’s assume I’m wrong.
I usually am.
Then, the following was true:
- I was meant to be born shy, awkward in social situations, and without much belief in myself (let alone hope to change that, ever).
- It was meant to be that I was deeply depressed at a young age, bullied in school, a social outcast, and that I contemplated suicide for years.
- My cousin Elise was destined to die at age 5 due to that shit called AML (acute myeloid leukemia) without any prior warning.
- My purpose was now to help people (like you) through my life story of ‘overcoming the odds’ and ‘turning my life around.’
- Struggling for nearly a full decade—to finally find part of the answers to the all important question “how do you live a more meaningful & fulfilling life?”—was intended.
- I just needed to think positive and all’s fine. (Hello, The Secret!)
- And the list goes on.
C’mon… I mean, seriously? To me, it’s bullshit over 9000 (or however that Dragon Ball Z meme goes).
To you it might be different; it might make more sense to you than it does to me.
Whatever…
Whatever you believe to be true …is true—FOR YOU.
And we’re not here to change your beliefs.
The choice is YOURS.
You decide what’s the meaning/purpose/calling of your life.
All I know is that we have the power to decide for ourselves.
No fate, no destiny, but also no randomness.
One of the major turning points of my own life occured when I simply decided that I define the meaning of what is happening.
I am, for example, not denying the death of my cousin; I am consciously choosing the meaning, and that is LEARNING (for me; it’s my reality).
I could also choose differently. However, I choose empowering emotions.
Get that: You are in charge of your own life.
