How can you complain about the life you lead? Sometimes, I realise how focused people are about the little insignificances that make them “unhappy”. The world we live in us such a beautiful place. Why do we make the insurmountable (and unconscious) effort to not take notice? We are permanently binded to a void that can not be filled. How (or should I ask why) is everyone so oblivious to the fact that you have the power to change that? Our vision has been impaired by exterior factors that have shaped our lives, thoughts and self. Why do we allow this to happen? Why can’t we wake up to the realization that every situation, person and ‘obstacle’ we encounter is a gift sent to help us grow? It’s not about asking yourself “Why is life so unfair?” Why do these things happen to me?”. It’s about asking yourself “What can I do to change this?”

Sometimes, life throws curve balls that are meant to strike you out of the game. It’s up to us to determine how we will let them affect us. You might not have control over life, but you do have control over your attitude towards it. Will you strike yourself out, or will you make the effort to hit a home run?
