If you think about it, this life is much like a ribbon. It has a starting point and an end point. We don't know where the end point is until the scissors cut the ribbon and our life falls short and ends. Mostly resulting in death of some form or another. During this life we can experience many things along that ribbon line. Some things are good for us; other things are bad for us. Either way we experience things that can make us a better person or not.
As we journey through the ribbon of life, we learn. We learn of marvelous things that can occur in this life. These experiences help us grow to become a better person. I prefer to look on the goodness that life brings at times. Sure, there are times where I don't think it brings anything good to me. But those times are far and few between. Life is but a huge experience that we look forward to. It would be nice if everyone thought life was wonderful. But not everyone has the opportunity to live a happy life. Sometimes life is downright cruel to people. There's no escaping it. You take the good with the bad and see what happens mostly.
It would be nice to be able to happily look upon life as though it were a wonderful experience. Something to learn from and grow. Something that will make us happy in the long run. Sure, we might slip and fall here and there, but it might be worth it in the end.
This life is but a steppingstone in the grand scheme of things. The plan is much bigger than this life alone. That ribbon I spoke about. It's very tiny compared to the rest of eternity. There's not much else to do with this life but wait and hope that it will get better. It has to right? I mean that's what I would want to see happen. But there's no way of telling if it will get better or not. Life doesn't work that way. It simply exists and we are here along for the ride.
