The best things in life we never see coming. This statement is so perfect for everyone and anyone. We expect things. We seek them out. We scour the earth, but somehow reality sadly doesn't always live up to our expectations. As a result, we take things and people for granted. We let them slip away because it isn't exactly how we imagined so we figure it must not be right. It's quite unfortunate that this is actually the truth. And as time goes on, our expectations only get more and more unrealistic. Now I'm not saying we shouldn't know what we want. I also don't believe in ever settling for less. I guess my point is that the best things in life take us by storm. We don't see them coming or expect them, but once they happen we wonder how we lived before them. Maybe that's why when we look back at some of the past crap, we refer to it as a blessing in disguise. The job we didn't get, the boy who cheated-- all ended up resulting in something better. So in the end, we know it was for the best. Something wrong had to end for something better to take its place. That's something we learn to accept. We have to realize that everything happens for a reason, or maybe it doesn't. But isn't the idea that it does so much more comforting? It makes it easier to let go of toxic people and relationships because we know that there's something so much better out there for us. So many people get so disappointed because they haven't found love or "the one." It doesn't happen right away for everybody, and there's certainly no formula to find them one. S/he isn't a variable in a math equation. It wouldn't be love if it was just that easy and expectable. We try to force happiness through forced relationships. But love isn't something we can calculate. It takes us by storm. It's totally unpredictable, but that's the best part. We find ourselves needing something that we didn't even see coming. It fills a hole we didn't know was there in the first place. There's something bigger than just us at work here.
