Life is a pain in the ass. Things do run smoothly from time to time,
but there’s always, and I mean always, a rough patch looming
somewhere around the bend.
People say if life were easy then it would be boring… maybe they’re
right. But a bit easier couldn’t hurt. Unfortunately, that isn’t the way
things are. Life is tough no matter who you are.
Sure, it’s tougher for some than others, but life for human beings is
tough for all of us because we are capable of deeply wanting things.
Because we can want things with all our soul, we find ourselves
going after what we want.
While finding such a purpose in life is part of the battle, it isn’t even
half of it. No matter what you are going after in life, if it’s something
worth having, then it won’t come easy.
As it goes, the more you want something, the more affected you will
be when things don’t go your way. Wanting something with every
fiber of your body and being denied it, is a form of torture.
It’s during such times that people are truly tested, their willpower
pushed to the limits. Moments like these require as much focus as
possible.
