The random thoughts of the LostSoulHD

Life. I know this as the fourth attempt of me trying to pen this down . I never got quite around the last three times but finally , i decide to finish what i have started doing since the age of 14 . Life . One word . Holding such a tremendous power . Life is a journey . Life is our experience in handling things in Earth . It brings happiness , joy , serenity , calm , enrichment but ultimately , brings forth death , sadness , anguish and jealousy . When i say it ultimately brings us pain , it truly brings us the full actual meaning of failure and destruction .

Life . It is one thing to know about it and a whole different thing to acknowledge it the presence of life . We think we understand life . We think we understand the journey that life has brought us to . We assume we know . We assume we understand .

Do we ?

Very few truly acknowledge the fact that life exists . We go along the day , meeting other people , doing various things , but how many people will truly see how life fits us in ? Look at a beggar . He lives with a life , even if others deny it . It is just an unhappy one . Look at yourself . If you can read this , you are living in an advanced situation with enough hi-tech accommodations to keep you alive . Yet , even with these pleasantries , we want more . We deny ourselves the life that we are entitled to live with and constantly push ourselves to work lifelessly , obtaining what little extras you can scavenge .

Must we ?

True , life in modern cities demands a lot . but , have you paused and wonder , when will it end ? When can you actually sit down and relax , enjoying life as it is ? Hardly satisfying answers crop up in the mind . We would just shrug off the thought and proceed lifelessly in our motions .

Let us return to the beggar . How did his life change from a happy one to a sad one ? There are many possibilities . He either wasted all his money or got hit by a wave of bad luck until he became bankrupt . That would be the general ideas given . But no one would think ; was he borned for the sole purpose of living a life as a beggar ? Terrifying , i grant you , but in life , we have to accept everything possible . Life holds many , not just one , purpose . we live for a purpose , yes , but life lives on for many purposes ; for you , for me , for anyone .

I am writing this in my teenage crisis , where i am met with failure and where my life is facing a turn . I write this on the night where i find myself clear for a moment of life . Now , i mentioned that life is a journey and that this journey has a tremendous force that guides us . Say life has only one purpose . I would have been stuck in this crisis , working my way out with only one way ; studying and studying till i drop dead .

Is it all that life has for me ? For you ?

During the journey of life , there are " signposts " . There are crossroads . There are decisions . This is where life divides . This is where the CHOICE appears . To choose this or to choose that . To do this or to do that . Too many options , but only one selection . And in this selection , your journey of life is ultimately set . You set it in general , not specifically . There is still room for you to do more . You do not barricade yourself to one choice . You open lines to others . You prepare alternatives , which is the main point of why life has so many purposes . it has many alternatives . it alternates for all .

If we do not enjoy life , why live ? If we do enjoy life , please , for the love of the Gods .. Enjoy it !!
