Life


Life is all about finding the degrees of pain you can handle. It never really goes according to our plans, nothing really flows as it is supposed to. People lose their kids, the worst kind of pain for parents; Lovers have their heart broken slightly less painful. Horrible things happen to innocent people and to the innocent, a life long pain. How are we supposed to learn from this pain, how is it supposed to make us stronger, when all it does is makes us want to fall apart. You grow-up when you realize the best safety net is you; you become strong by telling yourself this too shall pass. I think life is to be survived sometimes; just making it to the end of the finish line is all that God asks us. I am not sure about the learning bit, but I am certain we are supposed to preserve the qualities that we were born with – to be curious, even when life seems dull, to be hopeful even when all you want to do is hide, to be kind even when you are kicked on a daily basis. To not let anything or anyone make you bitter, to change who you are. To go through life without letting the bumps run deep.
