Believe in the universe?

This week has been a crazy week, filled with emotions.

One day, it was filled with confusion and doubts. The next day, it was filled with hope. 
Then, it was filled with despair. Later, it was filled with clarity, relief and certainty.

So, as you can tell, this week has been a roller coaster ride.

Thankfully, I had friends by my side as I sat down to think, smile, cry or scream.
Even if they didn't say anything, just knowing that they are by my side really helped me calm down.
Even if all they said was, how was your day? Just knowing that they cared, helped.
And talking helps too.

At first, I thought that my life has fallen apart because my A-levels result was not what I wanted.

But now, I'm beginning to realize that this is just the way the universe was putting everything in place for me.
That even though this hurts, it is for my own good. It is for me.

So, right now, I want to believe in the universe trying to help me.
But the universe can only help you if you also help yourself.
So that means, you have to fight and do your best.
Or else, the universe is just going to hand you crap. It hands you crap because if you don't bother, the universe won't too.
But if show the universe that you mean it, and you do your best to overcome your challenges, internally and externally, the universe will try to see what it can do for you.
And maybe, it may help arrange things to your liking.

Who knows.
But I believe in the universe. Trying to help me.
