Everything happens for a reason

I was watching Sliding Doors the other day...and it made me think about how a split second can change the course of you life. One desision can make you take the long way to your destination....but eithere way you arrive at the same point. You either learn a little along the way...or coast a bit more....but all in all everything happens for a reason. Nothing in life is without purpose.

I have been know to take the long way to a destination all to often. I try not to look back and regret...but some instances force you to say WTF was I thinking. But I am sure some valuable experience was derivied from the long road. I look at the young girl I work with who just turned 19. She is still so young, but she is cocky and thinks she knows how things go. I am constantly reminded just by a walk into work, just how far I have come as an adult. All of my experiences, screw ups included have shaped me into what I am today. I may have my days and sometimes they will come one after another in a long row. But that doesn't make me screwed up or in need of help...it just means I am learning to become a better person.

Everyting happens for a reason.....

Just to think.......
If Danielle hadn't made me go to Ropers for her birthday.....
If Hope would have never gone to Pittsburg and had a blow out and broken up with Will....I would have never thought to say lets got to the country bar (Ropers) and we can make fun of it and ride the bull to cheer up....
If it weren't for us rallying up a big group to go to Ropers....
If it wen't for the grop of guys staring at all my friends all night at Ropers....
And if it wern't for Victor knowing Brad from the bank....
Then Hope would have never met Robert and started dating him....
If it weren't for the storm and Hope going missing....
IF it weren't for Danielle making Hope gome back to coffee night.....
if it weren't for Danielle and I making Hope call Robert right then....
We wouldn't have gone out with them....
If it weren't for my last relationship ending....
If it weren't for Robert noticing Trey and I's connection....
If it weren't for me calling Trey on his way home from going out from Hope's phone (to make sure he was ok)....
If it weren't for Victor leaving early...
I wouldn't have ridden in Trey's truck with he and Robert...
If it weren't for that night at the bar I amy have never kissed Trey...
If it weren't for all of this I may have never wound up dating a guy who makes me so entirely happy!

just to think.....It could have happened....It has happened before....Trey and I have so many links, so many ways we have been in the same room, so many people (close family people0 who are good friends,....I guess then just wan't the right time...it just wouldn't have worked....but now, NOW is the right time. And even if I had to take the crappy road to get here...I wouldn't have it any other way. I am happy with my destination. I am genuinely happy with where my life is right now. I love my friends, family, job. Life is good...and tonight it the night....I make sure everyone knows how I feel. And on that note....Trey is here to pick me up.
