“There are no extra pieces in the universe. Everyone is here because he or she has a place to fill, and every piece must fit itself into the big jigsaw puzzle.” Deepak Chopra

This has always been one of my favorite Chopra quotes. It brings a sense of belonging and understanding towards the many events in life we often question. We meet people in life, sometimes once, and question the reason for certain encounters, but that person fits into a puzzle. You fit into a puzzle of life. You are here for a reason. Your very existence is not accidental, but crucial. You are crucial and important for so many reasons and don’t ever forget that. Some times life doesn’t go as planned, but, nonetheless, you are still as important as ever. Okay, you didn’t complete high school, life happened and you weren’t able to complete a desired career, that doesn’t make you any less valuable. Today is the day to achieve what you want. To think that we aren’t an extra piece, a filler, a back up plan floating around, simply taking up space, but we are relevant to this universe for a reason is beautiful! Many do not realize the indentations we leave in others lives, even if you had a conversation of a couple of hours, five minutes, who knows what impact you made. Remember, you are part of a bigger, grandeur picture. You are part of completing a puzzle. Without you, that puzzle would be incomplete. You are needed!!!!! Some have encountered horrid situations in life where they questions the relevance of that person that hurt them and I can’t answer that, but you can turn that encounter, event, situation into something positive. Make a difference and do not allow those encounters make you weak, but stronger by warning those around you, being wiser, accepting to not be like that person who caused you harm. Sometimes we may be in that puzzle piece next to despair and pain, but the best way is to look at the bigger picture. Don’t get lost in the negative, but turn it into something positive. You serve a purpose. I serve a purpose.

Remember, you are a VITAL piece of the puzzle and not simply for Earth, but the Universe! Have a wonderful day!
