“It’s never the changes we want that change everything.”–Junot Diaz

Life happens, but not always in ways we want it to. The changes may come in unexpected ways, some come with tragedy and others provide unexpected positive outcomes. Remember, “sometimes when things are falling apart, they may actually be falling into place.” Reading The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao reminded me how struggles and, at times, paralyzing circumstances make a person stronger. It is true, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Those unwanted occurrences that occur may be what change things, but it is up to us to redirect them towards a positive aftermath.

Have a wonderful day!
