Philosophy
I have two philosophies in life: Everything happens for a reason & KISS: Keep It Simple, Stupid. I often have to remind myself that life doesn't always go the way we want it to, but there's a reason for whatever's happening. I also often have to tell myself to KISS it, because I have a tendency to make things more complicated than necessary.
