Life is a mystery.

Life is a mystery,we go from anxiety to highs,we live in uncharted waters,we try to acknowledge that life has its ups and downs,and in an age when we have never had so much,we still feel deprived ,hopeless and unworthy,and when i look at the the struggles my parents and grandparents had,and yet they survived under enormous deprivation compared to today.

We expect just everything without lifting a finger,and life should never be like that,we should accept that in life there are pitfalls,and no one,whether rich or poor,are exempt from enormous changes of life, and often emotional changes,changes that we do not foresee or expect,and only a few will accept these differences.

When i look back through history there has always been famine,pestilence and horrors,and today it is no different,except today we tend to deny that these horrors exist in our world.But exist they do,but what do we do,we turn a blind eye and think that tomorrow those worries will go away...but they wont and we have to deal with it as best we can.

Everyone has to deal with untold loss at sometime,and we wonder if we can ever climb those insurmountable mountains,but we can and we do because the human condition will not allow us to fail.

Each of us walk a tightrope of fear and trepidation but our indomitable spirit leads us through.

I especially think of a very special friend at this time,for i know she is worried of the next few days,but her zest for life will be her driving force to conquer all in her way.Amen.

Wonderful post, just think of the people who survived the world wars , my parents and grandparents, and some even surviving the concentration camps , going through unimaginable horror, they say it’s not what happens to you in life but how you deal with it.

Your post really hit home for me today as I sit here waiting for a biopsy report on my son. It seems his cancer might have returned. So many hardships have hit our family these past few months. And just to top things off his dog collapsed last night and is at the vet hospital. Back legs completely paralyzed. Awaiting word from doc. But we do survive, even if it’s just minute by minute. As it is right now for me since I have MDD. Thanks for your words, so very true.

Love the username by the way, a medieval exclamation methinks.
