Sometimes people come into your life and you come to realize that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out whom you are or who you want to become. You never know 16　 these people may be, but when you lock eyes with them, you know in an instant that they will 17　 your life in some profound way.

And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first, but

18　 you find that without overcoming difficulties you would have never realized your 19 , strength, willpower or heart. Everything happens for a 20 . Nothing happens　 21　 or by means of good luck. Illness, injury, love, brilliant achievements, and sheer stupidity all occur to　 22　 the limit of your soul. Without these small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a　 23　 paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and 24 , but dull and utterly pointless.

The people you 25　 who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you 26 , help to create who you are and who you become. Even the　 27　 experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are the most important ones. If someone hurt you or breaks your heart, 28 them, for they have helped you learn about　 29　 and the importance of being　 30 . Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it　 31 . Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every 32　 to. Tell yourself you are great and believe in yourself, for 33　 you don’t believe in yourself, it will be hard for 34　 to believe in you.

You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no　 35 . Most importantly (!!!), if you love someone tell him or her, for you never know what tomorrow may have in store.
