Do we really believe things happen for a reason?
Or is this a deceptive support system, to make us feel absolute?
Is this a response we hear from others or ourselves, to ease the fear of the unknown?
In the case of a letting a goal slip away, maybe it was meant to be,
maybe we just didn't work hard enough.
In the loss of a loved one, maybe they weren't meant to go.
Maybe accidents happen, maybe there are cures to illness' that are hidden from us.
Maybe it's easier to let a relationship slip away, and give a simple fictive reasoning that there is a better door awaiting, rather then working on it.
Are we taking the easy way out?
Are we not conquering our fears, because we are scared?
Or could it be true? That there is a plan for us, that is unknown to us, and one day, it will all make sense.
Maybe one day we'll look back and think, i'm glad I never attained that goal, because if I did I wouldn't be where I am today.
Maybe there is some metaphysical after world, where the one's we love and lost, are there watching, protecting, and doing greater good than they could have executed, in the phenomenal world.
Maybe that relationship was a stepping stone to a soul mate.
Maybe we are scared, but it's fear that makes us curious and question.
And it's only questions and curiosity, that will help us find the answers.
