About This Quote

The world keeps happening, in accordance with its rules; it's up to us to make sense of it and give it value. The world does not happen for no reason. It makes sense because everything has a reason. If something is happening, chances are that there are reasons behind it.

To try to make sense of things, the person who made the statement needs to ask himself if he understands the reasons behind things happening. If not, he can try his best to explain them or even change the things that he cannot explain.
