The People Puzzle
Sometimes, there are just some pieces that don’t fit into the puzzle that is your life, no matter how pretty and alluring they look. They just don’t. You’ll probably ask yourself a million times, “Why?”, you’ll shout up at whatever it is that you believe in to answer you and listen to all the “time heals all wounds” from various voices thinking that they couldn’t possibly understand.
Then one day, you discover that there was another piece missing from your life and though it probably will never replace that piece that you pined for (though in my case it did), it will at least help to make both pieces fit into two separate sections of your life, one being your past and the other your future. You’ll smile to yourself or perhaps feel a little sadness when you stop and remember that part of the puzzle and how you thought that it would last forever as you compare it to where you are now, it’ll make sense. There are people who will always wonder all the possible what ifs? but I think that in the end, most are content with not ever pursuing them.
As corny as this all sounds, things do happen for a reason. They’re not all great reasons but I like to take comfort in the fact that the ways of the universe are intentional despite not seeming that way. I think it’s the romantics in us that like to believe in chance happenings when it comes to the people in our lives, usually though, those people come to reveal their great uses and purposes in our lives.
I think it’s kind of beautiful.
