Here

Life, they always say that it is the greatest blessing, the greatest gift, whether from god, from parents, or whatever. Even so, why is life so difficult sometimes? Why is there no one to teach us how to live life like a blessing? Why must there be countless obstacles to ruin our happiness? Those people who say life is good, I wonder, do they say it too at dull moments? Do they too think life is good when they've come to face agonizing moments of sadness? What will they think then? I wish to know.

Happiness, we all are told it doesn't last, and we all experienced it ourselves too. But there's always someone else out there always seem to be happier than us, always seem to have more than us. Yet, every man has his own meat, every man has his own poison. People are suffering, it all seem so inevitable. Pain always has to come after every bit of happiness, life just won't let us go that easily huh. It just have to put you down crying on the ground each time you think you've reached the pinnacle of happiness.

Each time that you think that you're content with life, something just have to come tumbling down, something just have to appear right in front of you and give you a hard blow in your face. Some say this is to make us grow, this is for us to learn to be stronger. But isn't it a bit too tiring at times? Isn't it a bit too much at times? Where's that room for us to catch our breathe? Where's that space we need just to enjoy a little more longer?

And despite all that, why do humans still continue living like they do? Why do most humans still fear death?

But don't you feel so, only when happiness comes only it is a blessing, the rest of the times when your face is in the mud, you curse your own fate asking why do you have to go through this kind of life. I do. Perhaps I don't appreciate happiness as much. Is this the same for everyone? Is it that when you're happy you only think about the moment of joy you're currently in? Then when you're sad, every possible sorrowful moments you've faced before come back and taunt at you?

Wishing for happiness to last might be too greedy, so all I ask for, is just to have the sad moments, less painful..
