The Easy Life

It is undeniable that everybody would love to have an always pleasant life, that each of us longs for easy times, with no struggle and certainty regarding outcomes. But let's think for a moment: were we sure of the outcome, were life to serve us our wishes on a silver tray, would we still feel enthusiastic and hopeful about starting a new day? If you are reading a thriller or watching an exciting movie, how would feel is someone comes along and tells you how the story ends? Wouldn't you feel disappointed? Wouldn't you think that you have been deprived of the actual experience you were entitled to? It is "your" life, "your" experience and you need to go through all the necessary steps to reach the outcome, to achieve your goal, to arrive where you are planning to go. If you are denied the trip, reaching your destination will not be so rewarding. Therefore, if today is a mixture of joy and sorrow, excitement and boredom, health and pain, let us accept is as a complete, creative palette of feelings that allows us to fully savor the condition we call Life. Each "color", each element that is part of our day will give us reason for growth and progress on our path.
