life as it is

life is just so unpredictable. one day you can be happy, one day you can be sad. you may see your good friend today, but tomorrow he may be gone forever and never come back. there's no limits to how things can possibly get or be and it is also this reason that life can be so complicated or exciting/thrilling to some.

if many things are not going your way, you can do many things; break down and cry, bitch about it to a friend or just keep it to yourself. but it is the choices like this we make that affects us and the people around us.

if you break down and cry, you just break down and cry, friends and family will console you and stuff but it's really up to you if you wanna get back up on your two feet and move forward.

if you bitch it to a friend, of course your friend will ask you if you're alright and being yourself and it's up to you how you wanna feel. people will start worrying which is good in the sense that people actually care for you, and you can count on their support.

if you just keep it to yourself, you can do it, but past experiences tell me it's hard to do it, and if you do, you have excellent anger management abilities. you would just want to tell someone about it and let it off your chest, and once you do that, it will feel absolutely light-hearted.

that is two ways though which really helps in relieving stress and anger which I've tried and actually works. the first way it's best to do it near the sea or just somewhere no one can see you. raise your arms and just scream or shout! it works and if you don't try you never know how it feels. the second way is easier but really depends on how you look at it. just imagine how lucky and fortunate you are to actually be stressed and angry about these things; kids in Africa don't have the luxury to think about what you are feeling right now. they worry about other more important things like their basic necessities such as clean water and carbo food to survive. one sentence to summarise this; do not take simple things for granted and be appreciative for the many things (be it happy, sad, angry, disappointing) happening around you.

and if things are going your way, good for you! and hope or pray things continue to go your way.

maybe life is just god's test to everyone; whether we are able to face challenges and endure hardships to be able to proceed to the after-life, which no one knows until they're dead.

life can never be good without our family and friends, and I'm glad they're there to support me in any way possible.

act justly, serve truly and walk humbly (with your god)

and finally one word to describe life; bittersweet.
