Why Life Isn't Going The Way I Wanted it to Be?

I am not wealthy, nor poor, an average life I guess.

I am contented with the life I had. But sometimes, this questions keeps hitting me.

"Why life isn't going the way I wanted it to be?"

When I was young, I never thought that life is hard. My family can eat three times a day and enjoy our life. Although my parents rarely bought us toys, I was okay with it and never ask for more. We never went out for a family trip and we seldom celebrate birthdays or any occasion. But neither of my siblings and I complained about it. Our parents thought us to be contented of what we have or had.

That's how I live my life up to today.

But their are times I question myself, why life isn't easy? Why life doesn't go with the way I wanted it to be?

I know for sure that you experience it too. That there are times that you wanted something but it didn't happen because of your incapability.

Even if we are contented, we sometimes seek for more or ask for more.

And that is the nature of human, I guess.
