You know what is awesome? There was only like a one in 40 trillion chance that you would be born. That means that generations of people had to get their shit together well enough to create a chain of events ultimately resulting in you. That means that everything happens for a reason.
Lets take for example...what are the odds that I would be friends with any of the people I am? My friend Marie and I moved from opposite coasts to the same small Kansas town. What if her parents picked a different town? Or mine decided to never leave Atlanta? Who would I be? How has her friendship influenced my life to make me the person I am today? Our shared experiences are what bonded us. So even if we had met at some other point in our lives, would we still have gotten as close as we did? If movies have taught us anything, it is that we would not. And, how sad is that? I am so grateful for every single (yes, even the horrid) things that have happened, because in this day, I am so satisfied with my life and the people in it.
I guess the real point of all this is to say that I miss Marie and I wish she would get back from Safari so I could talk to her. :)
Also, all of you should read her blog about her time at Stellenbosch http://khayamnandi.blogspot.com/
Hugs and Smooches! :)
