One Final Thought

Growing up, I would always think to myself "why do things happen to me?" This is a very valid proposition because if you think about it, life is constantly decided by the difference of inches. Things happen for a reason, and that reason is inches. You may decide to set your coffee on the dash of your car as you are pulling out of your driveway as opposed to the normal area of resting, the cupholder. However, this morning you hit a pothole and that cup of coffee spills all over your dress slacks, instead of spilling on the vacant seat next to your cup holder. You have to turn around and go change your pants at your house because you were on your way to an extremely important job interview. Because you had to go change your clothes, you run late to the interview and don't get hired. Little did you know that the woman who would have worked in the cubicle right next to you would later become your wife. So now you are jobless and womanless all because of a matter of inches. I could go on and on about how thsi ripple effect could continue but I think that you guys grasp the idea I am attempting to convey. In this game we like to call life, things happen one and they affect our life one way or the other. These inches create our life and without them our lives could theoretically be drastically different from now. Just remember that inches do matter no matter how small.
