There are so many experiences and coincidences that I've had that move me to believe that some of these Things were already written in the stars. As a child, I was always adventurous. I loved exploring, and I was overly curious... I wanted to know about everything I saw. Sometimes I wondered why I was just naturally made like that... someone who loved new things and most especially nature. By the time I started crawling, I had already excised my adventurous behaviors... one of which almost deformed me... There are these hangers that we used to hang clothes at home, and they are iron. Normally I'd just see them there and let them be, but as I kept on seeing it, I crawled one day towards where they kept it, I put it into my mouth... It caused an injury that was treated in the hospital... now we had to get rid of all the harmful objects in the way because my mom said I just explore everything... That was why, when I eventually started writing right from when I was still in elementary school, everyone felt like it was something already written in the stars that I would be a writer. I mean, I have loved loving new things since I was young growing up, now to love writing is something that looks premeditated. Even when I couldn't construct sentences properly, I still wrote.. My love for writing made me read a variety of storybooks right from when I was tender... so I knew almost all aspects of writing. Now I totally believe that this particular hobby of mine was written in the stars because now it's so easy to just write... I love exploring new topics of both fiction and nonfiction, and I love platforms that promote that skill. That is just one of the things I know was just meant to be. Another thing I would say was already written in the stars is the presence of the wonderful people in my life... Even though I was adventurous but I found it really difficult to make friends... As an Ambivert... making friends can be tough at times... so most times I just try to fit in. It all changed last year... the way I made all the friends was just so easy and natural that I really began to question myself. How could it be so easy to get such amazing Individuals as friends without compromising myself... every day I'm sincerely grateful and I truly view it as something that was written in the stars. The way it happened was unique... We had split in a particular congregation we were in and moved to form another branch... I had always been seeing this girl and thought she was way out of my league... but one day everybody came to check on it and I tried to talk to her... surprisingly it was so easy to talk to her... we talked about totally random things and it was great. That was all it took... the next time we kept on talking and talking and right now we are literally best friends... she's one of the best things that has happened to me and I still can't perfectly explained how it all happened.. ![IMG-20250726-WA0030.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmSStVv4xB7FmtuavhMaj6TKmpR6JZFuXvwKicohDKBwWf/IMG-20250726-WA0030.jpg) For most of the other friends I had... I met them through a fun platform where we held a gathering.. I was quite timid... but they approached and began talking to me.. I loosened up a bit because we literally had so much in common. Surprisingly, they also joined a workout group that I was in. This depended on our friendship, and now we call them in whenever we wanna celebrate special occasions, and they do too... It's really something to be grateful for. Oh, let me not forget to mention this moment... When I was feeling down because I felt alone and that all my friends ds deserted me. I was scrolling through my phone and thought I'd play some music.. I didn't want to listen to any jams... I just wanted something that'll be soothing so that I can cry out. This song just popped up on my screen ***"Like you- By Tatiana"*** I clicked the song, having no idea what it could be about. To my surprise, it comforted me... the lyrics were so soothing.. The part of ***"You gotta get up... You gotta get up and make a move"*** and ***"There's nobody in the world..... like you!"*** it got me and I was instantly motivated. Finally is the experience of one of my friends. I made friends with people who are quite older than me because I feel I can learn a lot from them. We were close, and she was at a marriageable age... she always said that she had a problem choosing because she hadn't found her dream person yet. I told her not to worry... the perfect person for her is already written in the stars... and when it happens... You won't believe it. She laughed and said I was in one of my daydreams again. A few months later, she bustled with excitement as she told me about the young guy that she met when she was stranded on the road... he helped her and even brought her home. They got to know each other and, surprisingly, ended up getting married. On her wedding day, I literally winked at her and said: ***"I guess I'm not the dreamer anymore"*** it was so amazing.
