Resolved
Life is a never ending sea of uncompromising ambiguity
Around every corner lies doubt and uncertainty
Therefore, the quest is not to find the safest path
But to find that worth pursuing
Doing so requires a certain degree of introspection
To truly know oneself takes the ability
To look through the lense of objectivity
And above all, strive for equanimity
The perils of life are real
Hurt, change, and fear are routine occurrences
Encountered on a daily basis
Despite this familiarity
The struggle to embrace these truths never becomes easier
Convenient refuge is sought in hiding from plain sight
That which we feel is insuperable
No matter how deeply buried
These problems still exist and must be dealt with
Refusing to do so only obscures the truth
Never truly allowing us to live life to the fullest
Resolved
Life is a never ending sea of uncompromising ambiguity
Around every corner lies doubt and uncertainty
Therefore, the quest is not to find the safest path
But to find that worth pursuing
Doing so requires a certain degree of introspection
Often times
The reluctance to approach these problems
Is a direct result of the fear of appearing weak
Even to oneself
The key lies in recognizing the strength
That comes from conquering the problems we face
Life's presents often seem incomprehensible
But while it may seem easier to run from
That which is not understood
The quest for truth suggests otherwise
Confront life's mysteries
Take them at face value and analyze them for what they are
The journey of life is not an easy one
The paths to unmentionable heights are treacherous
But offer the greatest rewards for those willing to endure
Life is wrought with pain
But to experience it demands sensitivity
Resolved
Life is a never ending sea of uncompromising ambiguity
Around every corner lies doubt and uncertainty
Therefore, the quest is not to find the safest path
But to find that worth pursuing
Doing so requires a certain degree of introspection
Resolved
Dealing with grief is a process in which
Each stage serves its own purpose
Even still, while each must be respectfully observed
None can be indulged
Denial, if left unchecked
Progresses to delusion and a warped perspective of life
Uncontrolled anger cauterizes into hatred
Bargaining turns to self loathing
And depression is its own demise
Thus, the ability to cope is determined
By the steadfastness one possesses in the pursuit of acceptance
Do not dismiss pain
Because in doing so, we succumb to numbness
And are doomed to live a life devoid of feeling
The earth knows no greater satisfaction
Than to emerge from the darkest night
Into the most glorious sunrise
Embrace hurt for the lessons it brings
Sheltering oneself only stunts growth
Never allowing for the recognition of true potential
Everyday is a blessing
So take all that you can from that which you are afforded
Experience life and all that it has to offer
Take the good with the bad
But let nothing break your spirit
Live, love, laugh
And above all else
Enjoy life
Life is a never ending sea of uncompromising ambiguity
Around every corner lies doubt and uncertainty
Therefore, the quest is not to find the safest path
But to find that worth pursuing
Doing so requires a certain degree of introspection
To truly know oneself takes the ability
