everything happens for a reason

proverb

  1. Used for consolation, possibly self-consolation, after someone has experienced something unfavorable or unpleasant, and hence an encouragement to make the best of the situation. I also believe that everything happens for a reason, so as the tears and self-pity subsided, I knew that there must be another way in which my newfound knowledge and Punch's sparkling desire to perform could be utilized.
