I believe that everything in our lives happens for a reason. Our journeys were already mapped out for us before we ever existed. Each step is important and should be honored.
Just as we cherish fond memories and eagerly make plans for our future, we learn from our past mistakes and face obstacles that define our character and strengthen us.
People say that we have pain so we can appreciate and recognize happiness. I'm not sure it's that simple. Anxiety and fear can be signs that we are in danger and need to protect ourselves. You may be feeling immense sadness now so that you are able to sympathize with someone else's pain who needs you. Your faith could need to be tested. You might need to see just how strong you really are.
What I'm saying is that, while we all want to feel warm and fuzzy all the time, ignoring pain is not the answer. Instead, notice it, and then make the choice to use it to get to your goals. Today, remember that you are so important that every moment of your journey matters.
Know that what is in store for you will be greater than anything you could have hoped for. Don't take a single moment for granted.
