Life is cruel, life is fun, life is tiring and exciting, life is meaningless yet priceless. We live our lives in comfort and unperturbed until we are rudely reminded that nothing is promised nor guaranteed to anyone. No one is invincible and sooner or later, we all learn this. How can something so beautiful be also so bleak? It's hard to not anxiously be waiting for the rug to get pulled from under you. For that life-altering moment when you know things will never be the same. Sadly, I can't turn off these thoughts, because the same thoughts that make me question the dicey, undependable nature of life are the same thoughts that allow me to appreciate the magnificent offerings life has to give. Cancer, murder, puppies and ice-cream-- we gamble for our fate everyday and hope for the best.
