"Imagine the world, and your life, and all the little pieces of your life and how they interact with the world as a majestic painting. Removing your life from the painting would leave a white blank space and everyone looking at the painting would wonder, well why is there that blank space there?
Things happen to us. They happen to our loved ones and they happen to the world around us. But we don't always understand WHY they are happening. We don't always understand how they can possibly contribute to the good of the world.
Imagine that you are only but a small piece of this majestic painting.

No matter what diety you believe in, our lives are the result of an amazing artist. We don't always understand what is happening. We don't always like it, but one day, if we back up far enough, we'll get a glimpse of the bigger, amazing picture.
