Is LIFE really hard?

I love the famous quote, "To live is to die". Birth is easy as relief as death, the real battle is the suffering in between. Life is complicated to those who does not know contentment. Life is complex to those who are slave of their expenses. As we grow older our dreams become broader and our beliefs are stronger which helps us to push ourselves to our limits and move towards our goal.

GOALS ARE THE ESSENCE OF LIFE

We might want to deny it but it cannot be avoided that what makes us suffer are the things that we want to achieve. Its the avoidance of pain that indulge us more in suffering as we hold with uncertain hope that at the end of the tunnel is a light, but what if its a TRAIN?

Imagine a life without a dream, you eat three times a day, you work for what you eat, you go to sleep, and you do the same thing next day. Is it more easy than to keep up with the demands, and prove yourself every single day, remind everyone about your worth and use. Aren't we all tired of trying? But why we always do? What's with hope that we keep on holding unto it even if its uncertain? Why bother to chase somehing which is seems to be impossible?

The answer for it is, life might get up side down as we reach our goals but life without a goal is never a life worth living for. The dreams of each individual is not only for themselves, we unconsciously reach for a dream or goals for someone that dear to us. For instance, you have experience in an abusive household so you work hard for yourself to be one day a psychologist to help other children to get help which you never received. This might sound like you want to resolve your trauma but the real thing is abuse children are near in your heart because you understand very well their situations. To sum it all, you endure all the hardship of studying to help your future clients not just to help yourself.

This is an open letter to anyone who is having a hard time and want to end things, or forget their dreams because things are getting in its edge. I tell you this, 10 years from know you will asking yourself about what ifs and should haves, take all the days you have right now to minimize your what ifs and give solid and logical answers to your should haves.
