There is a reason that some things we really want, do not end up happening. There is nothing more frustrating than wanting something so bad, and the complete opposite happens.

A prime example is relationships; so many times we wonder why it didn't work out with the person we wanted to marry or why you and the person you really liked never ended up together. Another example is a job; you may have lost your job or didn't get a certain job. The whys run through your head in those moments. "What did I do wrong?" "What could I have done better?" "How can anything be better than that?"

The sole reason those things do not work out is, something better was in store or is in store for you. There is someone greater and something better. I am living proof of it didn't work out for a reason, for a better opportunity. I have been through the heartbreak, lost guys I really cared about and lost my very first adult job, but I would not trade what I have now for any of that.

What I have now is so much better than what I wanted. It is a lesson that teaches you and equips you for what is better in your future. Look at those moments as a blessing. If you thought what you wanted but didn't get was great, just wait until you see what is to come.

One of the most humbling moments you will ever experience is when everything starts to fall into place and you see why certain things didn't end up happening for you. What is even better is seeing how much better you have become because of what you end up with versus what you wanted.
