Footprints In The Heart Of Others

Is there a reason why people come into your life? I used to fret that I only meet bad people, but now come to think of it, without these colourful characters, perhaps I may not be the way I am now.


Some people come into your lives at the time in your life when you really need. For instance, last year I was depressed for a while in the beginning of the year. I was so affected by things that happened that I wanted to just give up and not live life the way I wanted. At that point in time, I thought it was no use doing whatever I have been doing when I could never achieve anything. It was a rather low period for me.


Then I managed to pick up a bit, started socializing again, started trying my best and focusing on things again, when all of a sudden, I met someone by chance whom we have since become friends. He came into my life just when I was trying to get myself in order. He exposed me to things I would otherwise not be exposed to, helped change my perspectives a bit, made me see things from different angles. In short, he seems to have come into my life to make me a better person.


And through him, I got to know a few others who are equally intelligent, mature, good company and with a positive outlook in life, that hanging around them really have a positive influence on me, my outlook and my life in general. Maybe some people are meant to leave their footprints in your life so that you can better yourself through them.


So we should just pay it forward. If there is a chance for anyone to enter another person’s life by chance, we should make the person’s life better instead of being an irritant. Let us leave footprints in another person’s life so his / her life will be all the more better by your presence.
