Sometimes I think I have it all figured out and in split seconds I am back to square one completely tangled with the confusion of the basics of what we call “life”. So many answers to this question of what it really is but no definite understanding which can conclude to what ideally it is. Life is filled with so many expectations that in the end of the day it shakes up the whole aspect of it. Success, money, fine clothes, popularity, glamour and etc. Is this the definition? Is life to revolve on being fake as plastic? I find it so pathetic when I come across certain people who portray the image of life in this angle, there is so much more to this word then such shallow way of perceiving it. Personal belief for me in life is all that can bring a smile to the face, all that I can feel real within one which does not include being anything but true to one’s self. Life is what we live in… not something we live to pass jealousy and contagious hate. Each day brings a new ray of light in our *life* and it’s supposed to be there as a mission to teach us to live in the moment to embrace kindness for us and other but no one bothers to accept that. Backbiting, lying, watching others success bring pain… it’s so sad how low we let our self’s fall. This is reality and this how it really is all around us and it’s a shame. The point of all this is to take a minute to see how far we all have come along and how grateful have we been for every step of it? How much have we really appreciated the life we have been blessed with? We each get one life and as each day passes we are one day closer to its end. We can’t deny that everything in life does come to a farewell at one point or another, nothing is forever. Think about it.
