Everything Happens For A Reason

Don't you ever wonder why things happen the way they do?

Sometimes fate (or God, depending on your beliefs) has a way of guiding you in and out of life. You might bitch and moan when you get stopped at a red light while you're in a rush, but maybe it's that very stoplight that holds you back from getting slammed by a semi in the road ahead.

Maybe choosing the elevator on the right instead of the one on the left will lead you to the love of your life.

Perhaps the person you sit next to on the plane will introduce you to your next career.

At any rate, everything happens for a reason, and I wonder if I just discovered the reason why I signed up for a dating website.

My profile apparently got sent to a guy I knew from back in the day in college.

No, I'm not picking out wedding dresses yet (you know me so well), but the whole discovery did make me happy.

That's awesome! Have yall chatted yet and caught up? I never placed much stock in such sites, but once in a while they work very well!

Spydrz, we haven't caught up yet, but he suggested we meet up for drinks sometime this week. It will be great to see someone who used to "know me when"...

Michael, I only went to college with people who bleed blue. You know all the lyrics to that damn Rocky Top song. Just kidding. I have a tiny spot in my heart for the likes of you ;)

Congratulations! Personally, I've had 0% success with those internet dating sites. Well, what do you expect with the free stuff, but I actually paid for eharmony and got no love (literally and figuratively).

Kate...our love is like Romeo and Juliet...well, without all the suicide in the end...
