I hate Wednesday's

Everything happens for a reason. I have learned this expression. I understand this expression.

Sometimes I don't understand it though. Sometimes I wonder, what reason?

I often ask myself why bad things happen to great people. That's something I have never understood.

Sometimes you see people that you really like and the only thing in the world you want to see is to see them succeed. You just can't comprehend how they could get injured...once and then twice?

What the hell?

This ACL tear seems so unfair. It makes me think that God actually owes her. I never thought I would say that God owes someone, but I am now.

So unfair that I think that person should play the lottery, because she legitimately deserves to win.

There are lots of things in life that make sense to me but today is something that just doesn't make sense.

4.0, and so nice and honest that she asks if she can miss an optional review session for a test she felt prepared for so that she could do what she loves, play soccer. How many people would have just skipped the review session and played your favorite sport, even if they weren't prepared? All of you would skip.

This is someone who was constantly working to get in shape...and be in amazing shape. You would see her twice a day in the gym. You noticed the hours she was putting in. She was working her ass off.

You noticed it so much that you couldn't help but tell others how badly you wanted her to succeed.

Does that sound like someone who deserves bad luck?

Sometimes it seems like those with good luck are the ones who lie, cheat and steal. Sometimes it seems like hard work isn't worth much.

You might ask,

Doesn't hard work get you through everything?

Well, I think it does. Hard work has too. It's just annoying when you find out you have to re-do all the work you did.


I had to write this because I'm frustrated for this person, as is I'm sure everyone who knows her. When you know all she wants to do is be on the field and playing it makes it that much worse.

It's so frustrating because as much as you might care about this person succeeding, right now there really is nothing you can do or say to help them right. I'm sure that soon enough a card, a hug and kind words will be renewing and appreciated. Eventually you can help, but in the immediate future you can't do much.

"Feel better" doesn't really do the situation justice right now. It would be like pouring a glass of water on a wildfire.
