Do you believe?

I was going to write some hurtful words because a hurtful situation has come up in the life of a friend. I don't need to say what it is but it's obviously not cool.

I was talking to my mother about the situation, and to my surprise, she calmed me down. She told me that you are just as bad and inconsiderate as the person(s) involved in the hurtful situation if you say bad stuff.

So I changed my plan, and here are some different words.
In my words I believe in the following:

Things happen for a reason
Sometimes it just takes
a little push
to get you moving
in the right direction.

That little push might hurt
and that push
might take some time to heal
but at the end of the day
you are better off

It's better to have
a some hurtful thing
happen earlier on
instead of fifteen years
down the road

Don't fret and especially
~do not regret~
everything that has come to be
you are better off in the end
than those who hurt you

What counts the most is
Some true friends
are not always around
but, they will always be there
to stand by your side
when it counts the most

Amen.
