They say “Nothing is permanent in this world. Not even your troubles”. But have you thought it as, “Nothing is permanent in this world. Not even your happiness”. Have you?

Whenever some bad things happen around us, we become sad. We get hit hard by what life throws at us. We begin to think, “Why me? Why can’t things in life be simple and happen the way we wish for?” We face the trauma of it. We curse life with all the hate that we have. We start to live with the pain of it. And after a point we think that there is nothing more that life can do to make it worse. But things keep happening around us. Life moves ahead. We grow old day by day. We fail to notice the little things happening around us. We don’t celebrate a normal day. Because it’s just another day and nothing good happened. But nothing bad happened either right? So what is it? We mourn our bad days more than the rest. Being all negative and whining about how life shit on us and in the process we lose our normal days. We could have made a normal day better. We could have made a good memory out of it. But no, we are just afraid to do it after what has happened. And we become cowards after taking a blow. And there are people around us who create an impact on it. We validate our life with theirs. Comparing our bad days with theirs and make it even worse. Remember that we weren’t there to see their other side. We only look at their good days. But life slaps everyone of us in different ways. Right on the face. No exceptions.

Life is fair and unfair at the same time. As beautiful and joyful they say life is to be, it is equally cruel and wicked. It gives you happy moments when you feel there is no hope and it also throws a stone at you when you are celebrating. It never makes sense when it happens and why it happens. A godly person will say it all happens for a reason and whatever happens is for your own good. And there is a whole lot of others to say it is just bullshit. Nevertheless you have to deal with it. Because that’s how it works. Accept the fact that you happiness is not going to be permanent and so is your sadness. You are going to be bombarded between the two. Prepare for the worse. But don’t lose yourself by giving up on it. Do the things you want to. Fight for it. Make it happen. If you lose, brush it off. Ignore the foul mouths around you and move on. If you win, enjoy it the best you can because there is going to another bad day coming sooner.

Life is gamble. Like a game of dice. It has a lot of sides to it. The good, bad and the ugly. You always expect the right numbers at the right time. But that’s not how it plays. You don’t know what it has for you in the next move unless you see it happen. Sometimes you are unstoppable and move quickly ahead in no time than the rest of them and sometimes how much ever you try, you hardly just make a step or two. And damn, sometimes the dice even falls off the table and you have to pick it up and replay your round once again. But you have to roll the dice no matter what, to survive in the game. Play the game when there is some life left in you, because even you are not permanent here.
