"Everything happens for a reason"- pg. 113

     At first, as I read the book 'The Phantom Tollbooth', I couldn't make many text to world connections. But, whilereading a familiar phrase caught my eye that really made me think. 'Everything happens for a reason'. I must have heard the words about a thousand times in my life, but I never thought about my own opinion on the words till reading the book.
   Reading those words in the book made me think about first, what my opinion on 'everything happens for a reason' was. I've never been one to belive in fate and destiny, but for some reason I do belive that everything happens for a reason.
