Everything happens for a reason

I’ve come to the realisation that everything happens for a reason. Maybe at the time things are happening we may not see the reason or understand why. But I truly believe everything happens for a reason…even more so, I believe everything happens as it should.   

This might be a hard pill to swallow for some, believing and thinking everything happening is happening  to them. However, I have learnt that it’s best to say everything happens for you, not to you. Is it because we live in a universe that is for us and not against us? I’d like to think that we deserve only the best and will and can get it. Also, that the universe knows what’s best for us.   

Many may not believe it, or understand why I would say this when so many bad things happen to us. I am no stranger to facing many of life’s difficult moments and lessons, but I’ve always noticed firstly that hindsight is 20/20 and secondly, finding out the reason something happens, maybe months later, gives comfort in the fact that things worked out the way they did.   

Has this ever happened to you? Can you think back to a moment when the universe had revealed to you the reason something happened? Have you felt comfort and relief in it? Did you smile in that moment?   

I’d like to think then the universe was protecting us. I always love saying hindsight is 20/20…what does that mean? Well, to me it means that sometimes after things happen, after we experience one of life’s difficult journeys or experiences, then we understand it better, see it in a different way and gain the perspective and insight from it.   

I don’t have much to say on this without being criticised or unable to explain why some people go through the things they do. My saying this may make it seem that it is normal, or that I deserved this to happen to me. I don’t think we deserve the bad things that happen to us, but I like to believe that we came to Earth, to this planet, to this country, to experience things.   

We are here to experience life, to experience the things we face, to feel joy and all the other emotions we experience daily and throughout our lives. Tough pill to swallow—or maybe just food for thought? But can we? Can we have conversations like these? Can we share insights and discuss these, but more so be open to hearing what someone might think?   

I think it is okay for people to have different opinions, and it is even more beautiful when we respect each other’s opinions, still believe our own, and co-exist on this planet. Can this happen? Can we co-exist?   

Why am I talking about this along with decluttering?  How does your thinking change, having decluttered or from when you started the process? How has your thinking changed from when you first started to many months later? Book your session today.
