We Don’t Meet People by Accident: 5 Soul-Level Reasons Every Encounter Matters
No Such Thing as Chance.
“The people you meet are pages in the story you are still writing.”
I used to laugh when people said, “Everything happens for a reason.”
Back then, I lived my life on autopilot — easygoing, detached, telling myself not to think too much.
Wake up, face new customers, meet new people, hope the day would be smooth, and move on.
Day after day.
Surface living.
I remember once I asked my mother why things happened the way they did — why some people suffered, and others thrived — she would just shrug and say:
“Things happen. It is what it is. Don’t waste your time thinking about it too much.”
And for many years, I followed her advice.
It felt safer that way.
It allowed me to stay numb.
It allowed me to survive without asking too many questions.

Why do some lives seem touched by magic while others are buried under routine and pain?
Was it just luck…
