Things Happen For A Reason

When a change happened in my life a few months ago, many people made the usual "things happen for a reason" comment.  It now dawns on me how right they really are.   Most changes are neither accidents nor unpredictable.   With any loss comes sadness, but I find much of that sadness revolves around wishing how a situation could have been instead of the sudden shock of losing a wonderful thing.   By that fateful day, things in this case just hadn't been the same for months.  Time brings more perspective.    I've spared the details, but you've just witnessed true closure.   That episode is over.   If I accept that, I'm less likely to be that guy who was "never quite the same" afterward.
