(手のひらに書いてテストでカンニングをしてしまったという投稿に対して)You know that you didn't go into that test with malice in your heart and murder on your mind—and if you'd remembered to wash your hands before the exam, you probably wouldn't have even considered cheating your way to a better grade. But things being what they were, the opportunity presented itself, and in a moment of weakness, you messed up.http://community.sparknotes.com/2016/10/26/auntie-sparknotes-i-cant-forgive-myself-for-cheating things being what they wereの意味と文法的解説をよろしくお願いします

things being what they wereの意味と文法的解説をよろしくお願いします 1。意味   物事とはそう言うものだから > 自然の成り行きで > ひょっとした出来心で  普通は are で終わりますがこれはその僅かな変形です。 2。解説   理由を表す分詞構文 よく使うので、意味の擦り切れた熟語に近くなっています。  https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/times-being-what-they-are.2677005/

    Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you.

    You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.”

    You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face.In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you.
