You cannot define life

Life isn't only about moments. It's about choices, memories, pain and joy. A series of things that cannot be defined by one word or sentence. Every time I see a greeting card with various sayings, sayings on life it makes me wonder.

At some point of time every one goes through a state of nostalgia, of questions, of confusions. A state wherein they question the purpose of everything they do. A state wherein everything seems fine but not quite.

This is when you look for definitions, to define who you are, what you do and why you're here. It's natural to emote and feel. And to experience phases throughout your life. Without it, what would you really be doing?

In the medley though how do you come out at the other end stronger than before? You can learn from your mistakes, you can live again, you can feel. But most of us are too scared to let go and to let live. We hold on to what we were and the things that went wrong too tightly. And when the questions come we comfort ourselves in the plethora of quotes writers sell to make us feel better.

Life is not a definition. No matter what you read and believe, nothing can prepare you or warn you. At the end  of the day, when the sun sets on one part of the world it's all about hoping to wake up healthy, happy and warm again.

The sunshine and its strong rays are the world's way of saying every time you close your eyes, a light will guide you through.
