Everything Happens For A Reason

Another quote that stuck out to me was, "Faith is having the strength to trust in something that you can't see with your eyes or prove scientifically. You believe because your heart tells you that's where you should go or who you should be. Your heart tells you what is right." I think this quote stuck out to me because faith isn't something that everyone has. If it's just faith that you're going to pass a test, or something that could completely change your life. To me it kind of goes with the saying "Everything happens for a reason", which is something that I seem to always say. At this point in the book Miley is talking about a dog named Sheba that just so happened to be the same name and a dog that looked exactly like her dad's old dog. The lady that had her was living on the side of the road, and she didn't want to accept money or anything from them. After seeing her for a second time she accepted a little money from them and she continued living on the streets because thats what she wanted to do. Following your heart in situations doesn't always seem like things will turn out for the best but everything happens for a reason, although you might not know what that reason is at the time or for a long time afterwards.
