"What do you want to be in life?" My friend asked me through his thick spectacles that settled comfortably on his shiny nose! I thought about it for a few seconds and I just said it out before I could say anything else. Before I could convince myself that there was truly anything else I desired! "I want to be happy!" I replied with a satisfied smile. "You're wise beyond your years!" He replied and took a sip of his beer. I got lost in thought as he prepared to lecture me about what I already figured out about life! He actually spoke the same words I thought. We'd become like intertwined souls! After weeks of talking deeply about life with someone you almost become like soul mates; twin flames! Being able to finish each others sentences yet nothing romantic prevails between us! Success and money or material wealth means nothing without happiness! That is why millionaires and celebrities will kill themselves day in and out regardles...

Making love to life is the single most important yet toughest thing to do for us mortals! It's like finding a g-spot on a woman! Dare I say; It's like trying to make a woman orgasm. Life is as complicated as love; as a woman perhaps! You think you're doing it right and before you know it, your level best is the bare minimum! One moment it's smiles and excitement and another it is like crying on your bathroom floor; crippled from cramps that won't stop aching your entire being to the core! Just when you think you've mustered this life thing, everything crumbles and then you're like a widow clutching onto hope! Hope that perhaps she'll meet her husband in heaven one day and be pleased beyond relief; like the Mona Lisa, clearly satisfied but ever so subtle! Life is like a speed bump! The rush of it all; the joy! But the jolt brings us back to the harsh reality! What a life to be ever so present; exploring the unknown but barely cutting the s...

Everything we decide to do is a choice! Sometimes it is easier to hold onto hurt than to let it go because it has somehow become part of your identity. You choose to stay sad. Go out everyday, week after week.  You can barely be around people. You cannot survive being alone either because the cycle becomes addictive. Self loathe, self drowning and self pity became a great comfort zone. Zero productivity and inspiration cuddles you until you're so comfortable in being "in your own world" A really dangerous place to be. Perhaps there are things we all can't heal from completely. Maybe some scars are meant to be permanently tattooed in our souls. The more I seek out people to talk to, the more I realize how damaged everyone is. People are walking zombies trying to numb out pain and trauma. Human suffering has no basis for comparison. We all struggle differently. Yes some people have it way worse but it doesn't mean your pain should be discr...
