Comments on: Do Things Happen for a Reason? http://www.elizabethpottsweinstein.com/reason/ Live Your Truth Sun, 20 May 2012 23:04:02 +0000 hourly 1 By: Julieanne Case http://www.elizabethpottsweinstein.com/reason/comment-page-4/#comment-9684 Julieanne Case Thu, 03 Nov 2011 22:09:00 +0000 http://elizabethpottsweinstein.com/?p=1952#comment-9684 I agree with you. We all have to give meaning to what happens in our life.  Maybe we did choose this particular thing to experience before we appeared on earth.  Maybe it was just to see if we would give it meaning, take a leap forward, deal with it the best we can taking each precious moment at a time instead of lamenting and questioning and looking for a reason that it is visiting us and not someone else.  I saw a quote just yesterday that said that you can choose to let something define you, destroy or strengthen you.  You truly captured all the crazy thoughts that go through our heads at times like these.  Julieanne Case Always from the heart!

I was nervous to put it out there, but I realize now that it is actually the right way to start. I am truly sorry that you had to go through what you did, but I am grateful that it inspired you to write this.  You helped me.  You released a little bit of the pain in me and helped me deal with my shit a little bit better.  Thank you.

You are so right ... everything doesn't always happen for a reason, except maybe the consequences we get when we make really stupid choices that have bad results, but not everything bad that happens in our lives, or things like this. God doesn't cause bad stuff ... it's against His nature ... "He is light, and in Him is no darkness at all." Both you and Gracie are in my prayers ...

From videos and things you have posted she has always been very much her own vital determined person. Many prayers to you and your family.

I haven't had anything like the magnitude of things to cope with that you've had lately -- nothing trumps things that happen to our children -- but I am having great benefit from choosing to give meaning to my shit.
