Tommorow is never a promise

by risse concepcion   Mar 31, 2008


Sometimes people come into your life And you know right away that they
are meant to be there They serve some sort of purpose, Or help figure
out who you are And who you want to become You never know who these
people may be; Your neighbor, child, long lost friend, lover, or even a
complete stranger Who, when you lock eyes with them You know at that very
moment that they will affect your life In some profound way And
sometimes things happen to you And at the time they seem painful and unfair,
But in reflection you realize that without overcoming those obstacles
You would have never realized your potential strength, will power, or
heart Everything happens for a reason, Nothing happens by chance Or by
means of good or bad luck Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true
greatness and sheer stupidity All occur to test the limits of your soul
Without these small tests, whether they be events, illnesses, or
relationships Life would be like a smoothly paved straight flat road to nowhere,
Safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless The people you
meet who affect your life And the successes and downfalls you experience
create who you are And even the bad experiences can be learned from In
fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones If someone
hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, Forgive them For they
have helped you learn about trust And the importance of being cautious to
whom you open your heart? If someone loves you Love them back
unconditionally, Not only because they love you, but because they are teaching
you to love And opening up your heart and eyes to things you would have
Never seen or felt without them Make every day count Appreciate every
moment And take from it everything that you possibly can For you may
never be able to experience it again Talk to people you have never talked
to before And actually listen Let yourself fall in love, Break free and
set your sights high? Hold your head
