Yes I believe that everything happens for a reason, even if you don't know what that reason is at the time. For instance if something bad happens, it may be that it is happening to you to make you stonger person. Or, something good will eventually come out of it. I think a lot of this has to do with your faith, but I definitely live by the idea that everything happens for a reason. This idea alone has pulled me through a lot of hard times!

I beleive that things happen for a reason, but there are things that we can do to change some of it. I didn't need to go to the store one day, but I did anyhow mainly because I was bored. Someone smashed into my car, we weren't hurt, but I could have stayed home :)

Yes I do believe that everything happens for a reason. Yes we make our choices on things we do.. but something there are just things that are out of our control.. But I believe that if things didnt happen we wouldnt get to where we are today..so yes everything happens for a reason

yes, but most of the time we will only realize what the reason is over a long period of time...

yes, they do. and the amazing this is that if something which you thought bad happens, god turns it into something good or into opportunities for you to take. in the end, you'll see that it's a blessing in disguise.

I believe so. There have been far too many things in my life that I could not understand at the time, but that made a lot more sense as time passed. This obviously has a lot to do with my faith, but I think it's comforting to know that there is a reason for everything that happens, good or bad.

Yes, I really do. I also believe that for every bad thing that happens, something good comes from it. I'm not someone that has led a trouble-free life, either. I've had all sorts of heartbreaking things happen to me. I didn't have these beliefs before they happened either. It took the trials and hardships to see these things.

Yup, i do believe everything happens for a reason. Most of what happens in my life always happens for a reason. But at the time of it happening i dont realise it.But later on i understand why it happened.

I definately believe that everything happens for a reason. Well I guess maybe that is my excuse for everything.

yeah definitely,,!! it's as simple like "why do we breathe?", "why are we here for?" "why did you joined mylot?" or "why do we need to be in love?".. all that questions need an answer so for me everything happens for a reason.. lol
