Lessons Learned
Everything happens for a reason, right? I know people say this a lot, but can it really be true? Does everything actually happen for a reason? Even though we often can't see these reasons, in the big picture, everything that happens to us leads us to where we are now.
Although we might not understand these reasons immediately, we can still take something away from whatever comes at us. We should embrace every experience we have as a chance to learn something. It could be about yourself or something much, much bigger than that, but either way, you should constantly be learning- even if it seems impossible.
Lately I've been forced to reflect on some things I've said and done in the past. I've been leaning a lot on the awesome people around me and the belief that there is some deeper meaning to all of this. A popular Marilyn Monroe quote sums this up pretty well:
"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
By forcing ourselves to evaluate our life and important events that we experience, we become thankful for what we have and we gain an understanding that everything will be okay. Carrie Underwood has also helped me realize how I can learn from these life experiences with her awesome song "Lessons Learned."

Chorus:
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,
Everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night,
Every change, life has thrown me,
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,
I'm grateful, for every scar,
Some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned.
So now that I understand that everything will be okay I can just accept it and learn from it. Everything happens for a reason. Even if we don't want to admit it.
