[00:05.12]013. The Story of Life [00:11.25]Sometimes people come into your life and you come to realize that they were meant to be there, [00:16.28]to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become. [00:24.17]You never know who these people may be (possibly your roommate, neighbor, co-worker, [00:30.62]long-lost friend, lover, or even a complete stranger), but when you lock eyes with them, [00:36.88]you know in an instant that they will affect your life in some profound way. [00:42.35]And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, [00:45.86]and unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles [00:51.38]you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower or heart. [00:57.62]Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck. [01:04.44]Illness, injury, love, brilliant achievements, and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. [01:14.26]Without these small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. [01:23.26]It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless. [01:28.80]The people you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, [01:34.63]help to create who you are and who you become. [01:38.40]Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones. [01:47.05]If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, forgive them, [01:52.62]for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious when you open your heart. [01:59.34]If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because in a way, [02:07.38]they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things. [02:12.19]Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can, [02:20.51]for you may never be able to experience it again. [02:24.47]Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Let yourself fall in love, [02:31.32]break free, and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every right to. [02:38.97]Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don’t believe in yourself, [02:45.55]it will be hard for others to believe in you. [02:49.29]You can make of your life anything you wish. [02:52.59]Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets. [02:58.63]Most importantly, if you LOVE someone tell him or her, for you never know what tomorrow may have in store.
