Blog No. 1: What Life Can Still Offer Albeit In The Middle Of Crossroads

Life is said to live on with complexities, which is one of what life is about to offer. It is a blessing and suffering, according to German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. Yet the question, would living forever be terrible after all the crossroads people face? Or is it just a matter of how we view life?

Every question seeks to find an answer. It is sure enough that the longer we live, the wider the experience and growth we tend to go through. Life is different for each one—some got to be fortunate, some got to have privileges, and some have been less fortunate. We are on different boats, but after all, we all just paddle to reach our destined route and where we want to be.

May these key points also shed light on you while understanding the situation. Thus, life perhaps would want us:

To learn—life teaches us different lessons that even institutions can’t provide us. We may see and perceive them negatively or has nothing to do with us and our lives for now, but soon, we may never know how it will help us and will make such a huge impact on where and what we’ll be in the future. Just remember to take and take what life is giving us. No matter how rude we think life is, it’s still life we are living.

To realize—life itself also wants us to contemplate with it (life) because as we contemplate, realizations will follow. We have to realize everything; the life we’re living: (a) if we are still on the right path or not any more or (b) do we still have the urge to make our life even better;

It’s really and must be up to you! Not from your parents, peers, or anyone but solely from yourself. You have the freedom to choose whether not to choose among the choices, but you have to deeply think about it;

The decisions we are making (in all different aspects and circumstances): (a) is this right, or is this really what I must do? (b) is it really for me? (c) is this what I like/want? (d) will I be happy with it? (e) is it really where my heart goes into? Or it’s just solely what my mind pushes me to? (f) and what consequences to face. There are random and more standards and bases which will help you out in making good decisions.

And lastly, life has also the to “look on the brighter side of me (life)”—as I have written above, life is said to be having complexities–problems, battles, and all the terms to be used for those combined, but life also wants us to look for its brighter side that even though we are fighting different battles each day, we are still blessed that we still breathe—alive.

Life should not be taken for granted. Learn to live and love life just how it should be. No matter how bad your day and/or life may seem, there’s something good with it, just learn to appreciate it, the epitome of living the [good] life, and you’ll realize how blessed you are for you were born and brought to this world.
