"Life's a bitch, if that's what you call it."
Life is truly as difficult as you make it.
Life comes with ups.
It comes with downs.
It comes with highs.
It comes with lows.
It comes with good times.
It comes with tough times.
This is the reality of life.
We must accept reality for what it is.
Otherwise, we will be left wanting.
If you wish that life was easier.
If you wish that you had what someone else had.
If you wonder why you're having to face such difficulties in life.
Such tough challenges.
You're being passive and letting life happen to you.
When you pity yourself, of course life will seem difficult.
It will seem unfair.
But this is the reality.
This is life.
The beauty of life is not only in the ups.
The good times.
The highs.
The wins.
It also encompasses the lows.
The tough times.
The challenges.
And everything in between.
Free yourself from the expectation that life is going to be smooth sailing.
Accept that there will also be storms and rough waters.
Accept, and navigate through accordingly.
Or sink.
Strive to live, live to strive.
