No Regretts

The world we live in is confusing. One second it shows us how life can be so amazing and bright. The next everything would be crashing down. Breaking you in ways you never thought were possible. This world is cruel. The second you have hope, happiness, anything it will destroy it. But for some reason we keep fighting because those good moments make even the worst ones worth it.

In the early years of our lives all we are is naive. We sit there laughing at the stupidest things. They may be insignificant when we grow up, but at the time, it was everything. When we are young, we don't think about all the people that are getting tortured and dying that day. No we live in our own sheltered world. That's the way it's suppose to be.

As you get older you begin to realize just how broken this world truly is. You realize that the number of people that die everyday ,(Which is 131,600 on average) they aren't just a number. Each number represents a person. A person who had friends, family, a job. When we look at this number we never want to think about the person each one of those people were. We like to look at them as a statistic.

It's better this way isn't it? It makes it easier? When we get out of bed in the morning none of us think, oh I could die today. No we just think it's just a normal day. Well that's exactly what those 131,600 people were thinking. We all would like to think that we will live for a long time. On average about 80 years. The truth is though, there are no promises, no guarantees.

So when I get up in the morning, I try to start positive. Thinking about all the things that make life worth it. You can focus on the negatives if you want. But where does that get you? Hating the world for being cruel? It's the people in this world that make it cruel. When you focus on the negatives, all you are going to be is sad, angry, mad. Instead you could be focusing on the positives. If you say there are none. Well, then you truly are blind.

Even if it is just a slight thing, as small as something not being as worst as it could or has been. This world is broken and nothing will ever be perfect in it. You will ever truly know the day you will die. This world is unpredictable. So be happy every chance you can. Treasure the moments that make everything worth it. Don't have any regrets. So that when the time ticks away and your time has come. You have no regrets.
