Peaches,
This begs the question - can bad things that happen only be the causes of future good events or is it possible that bad things today are the consequence of good things that happened in the past? In other words, if bad thingshappen for a reason (to create future good things) - can good things happen for a reason (to create future bad events). Why or why not?
Example: I win the lottery. Later in life I am a drug addict and messed up my life. Can I then say "everything happens for a reason" and that winning the lottery happened in order to make me a drug addict?
