“Life is full of agony, enervating each one’s little soul”
Sometimes I feel like I am so perturbed by something but I do not know what it is and yet sometimes I feel so much in zest. These emotions causes me to be nonplussed at times and  riled. Emotions that I can’t seem to decipher where it came from.

A blend of gloom, warmth, despair, hope, fear, courage, burden, relief, boredom and excitement that all along trapped inside me. That’s life I guess. Each emotion represents my own highs and lows from both life’s cruelties and kindness. Weakened by what seems to be my experiences from days of yore yet strengthened by what I gained from it.

 Life never ran out of painstaking presents”
Life indeed, is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get. It is this fear that haunts me. Fear of not knowing what lies ahead. Fear that this life will be routinary right up through the end. Of course, there will always be the fear of the unkown. Fear that I might not be able to bear it’s gamut of painful presents. Yes, it is like a chocolate, so sweet yet bitter.

“-we think and dare.. wondering which one comes first, then next..”
Life is full of riddles and risks. I think, I decide, I fail, I succeed. Making decisions, taking one option and risking the other is truly the hardest part in this life’s journey. Anticipating and at the same time scared to know the consequences of my decisions.  It seems that I find these risks and failures a bane to my very existence in this one big journey called LIFE.

” – in our loss, we have everything to gain..”
In this journey, I might be harmed and the others unscathed. I might be the victor and the others a failure. I pray that I can surpass the tides of life with such great valor. In every journey comes terrible losses,  and in every loss is a gain.
