I read this question not long ago online. I have been thinking about it so much since then.
I have heard that SO many times in my life as, I am sure, you have too. But, is it true? If you really think about it does everything happens for a reason? |

I definitely believe this and I will give you an example.
I have figured out that I am destined to be a firefighter. Now this kid is freaking dumb most of you are saying, but WAIT!, let me give you the proof. Exhibit A. So I was woken up on a Wednsday by my mom and my cousin telling me that the firefighter apps had come out. Big deal I thought, until I got down to the firehouse, and they didn't have any more left, or at least they thought. They wound up finding the very last application that they had in the whole firehouse, and I got it. How is this fate you ask? Well I met a firefighter named Omar, who just happened to have gone through the academy in 05 and he knew my cousin and uncle, both members of the FDJC. He told me that he had applied at the exact same age that I did, and he has now been on the fd for a little over a year now. Exhibit B. As I was going through the testing phase of the fire department, I noticed that I would start to meet more and more firefighters out of the blue. As it turned out, one of my friends boyfriend and his father, works for the fd I want to get into. Fate because this never happened to me before I wanted to do this job. Exhibit C. I got an offer for a new job (my current one) which allowed me to train for my physical tests for the department with my cousin 5 days a week. I was also able to devote more time to getting ready for the demanding task of trying to become a jc firefighter which is no joke. Exhibit D. This is the biggest one of them all, MY HOUSE BURNED DOWN! I couldn't believe it until I thought to myself, this must be Gods way of telling me that it is going to happen. Everyone in my family was so nervous that I wouldn't want to be a ff anymore, but now, I want it more than ever. Sorry for the long post, but I just wanted to prove that I do believe in this theory. |
