Life is a journey that never stops, filled with lessons, hardships, heartaches, joys, celebrations and special moments that will ultimately lead you to your destination, your purpose in life.

The road will not always be smooth; in fact, throughout your travels, you will encounter many challenges.

Some of these challenges will test your courage, strengths, weaknesses, and faith. You may stumble upon obstacles that will come between the paths that you are destined to take.

In order to follow the right path, you must overcome these obstacles. Sometimes these obstacles are really blessings in disguise, only you do not realize that at the time.

Along your journey you will be confronted with many situations, some will be filled with joy, and some will be filled with heartache, you experience joy, sadness, pain, and Love.

How you react to what you are faced with determines what kind of outcome the rest of your journey through life will be like.

When things do not always go your way, you have two choices in dealing with the situations.

You can focus on the fact that things did not go how you had hoped they would and let life pass you by, or two, you can make the best out of the situation and know that these are only temporary setbacks and find the lessons that are to be learned.

Time stops for no one. If you allow yourself to focus on the negative you might miss out on some really amazing things that life has to offer.

You can not go back to the past, you can only take the lessons that you have learned and the experiences that you have gained from it and move on.

It is because of the heartaches, as well as the hardships, that in the end help to make you a stronger person.

The people that you meet on your journey, are people that you are destined to meet. Everybody comes into your life for some reason or another and you do not always know their purpose until it is too late.

They all play some kind of role. Some may stay for a lifetime; others may only stay for a short while.

It is often the people who stay for only a short time that end up making a lasting impression not only in your life, but in your heart as well.

Although you may not realize it at the time, they will make a difference and change your life in a way you never could imagine. To think that one person can have such a profound affect on your life forever is truly a blessing.

People will come and go into your life quickly, but sometimes you are lucky to meet that one special person that will stay in your heart forever no matter what.

Even though you may not always end up being with that person and they may not always stay in your life for as long as you like, the lessons that you have learned from them and the experiences that you have gained from meeting that person, will stay with you forever.

It is these things that give you strength to continue on with your journey. You know that you can always look back on those times of your past and know that because of that one individual, you are who you are and you can remember the wonderful moments that you have shared with that person.

Memories are priceless treasures that you cherish forever in your heart. They enable you to continue with your journey for whatever life has in store for you.

Sometimes all it takes is one special person to help you look inside yourself and find a whole different person that you never knew existed.

Your eyes are opened to a World you never knew existed – a World where time is so precious and moments never seem to last long enough.

Throughout this adventure, people will give you advice and insights on how to live your life but when it all comes down to it, you must always do what you feel is right.

Always follow your heart, and most importantly never have any regrets.

Do not hold anything back. Say what you want to say, and do what you want to do, because sometimes you do not get a second chance to say or do what you should have the first time around.
