About This Quote

"Some things happen for a reason" is a common saying that suggests that bad things often happen because there's a good reason behind them, and that we should learn from our experiences. The word 'obstacle' is often used in the phrase to describe something that gets in the way of something we want to achieve, or to stop us from doing something we want to do. "Mum liked to say" gives this saying a personal feel. The phrase 'Mum liked to say' also seems like it could be a quote from someone, or that it could even be used as a tagline or slogan for a business.
