WHAT A STUPID WORLD
One of my all-time favourite comic strips is Calvin and Hobbes. One day as they were walking through the woods, Calvin and Hobbes found a raccoon lying on the ground.
“Is it alive?”  Hobbes asked. “I think so” said Calvin “But he’s hurt…You wait here and I’ll go get Mom”.  Hobbes says “I sure hope she can help.” Calvin replies “Of course she can.You     don’t get to  be a Mom if you can’t fix everything just right.” 
Later, after even Mom couldn’t fix the raccoon and it died, a very downcast Calvin reflects “I didn’t even know he existed a few days ago and now he’s gone forever. It’s like I found him for no reason. I had to say good-bye as soon as I said hello… Still in a sad, awful, terrible way, I’m happy I met him… WHAT A STUPID WORLD”.

  1. There is a reason why you meet the people that you meet. They touch your life and you touch theirs in some way or the other directly or indirectly

  2. I believe that each and every moment in our lives happen for a reason.....Call it fate...Or the hand of God.....But each person that you meet......each thing that you do....you see...happens for a reason...and I believe there aren't any coincidences in the world. I used to believe there were, but not anymore.... all of life is connected.
