Does Everything Happen for a Reason?

Does everything happen for a reason?

This is a tough question, and it can really bring to light some of your fundamental beliefs. If you believe the answer is no, and things just randomly happen, then what’s the point? If you believe the answer is yes, then whoa! What does it all mean?

I believe things do happen for a reason. We all have lessons to learn in life and we are each on our personal journey. Life is a unique experience for everyone. I also believe that some things are just random and don’t really have any deeper meaning.

The key difference is how they impact you. If something happens that impacts you, there is definitely a reason and something to learn from it. If it’s just a random thing that has no impact, then you’re likely wasting time trying to see meaning in it.

Finding this balance makes it easier to realize what you should be learning from and what doesn’t really matter. However, this is a very personal view and I’m not sure all would agree.

So what are your thoughts? Does everything happen for a reason? Is it all random? Or is it somewhere in between?
