Life As You Know It
LIFE AS YOU KNOW IT

Who among us wants to have a difficult life? Of course, everybody wants to be happy. We want that great job or a succesful business. We want to be married to Mr. Right or Mrs. Perfect and to have great kids. To have friends that stick by us come rain or shine. To be able to have all the material things life has to offer and have all our problems just disappear is what most of us want.

Everybody wishes for a good life. but it may be at different perspective. One person may define a good life one way and another may describe it another way. For one person a good life may be just having three meals a day and a roof over their head. For another it may be having a huge mansion and a couple of millions in the bank. But whatever your definition of it, there is perhaps one thing that you may have in common with many other people. To have that good life stress free, without having to work so hard or struggle so much for it. That is a normal human expectation.

Unfortunately, that is also what may be stopping us from having that great life. The thought of all that work, all the planning, overcoming hurdles and resistance is enough to make a lot of people give up before they even start.

In life we will have difficulties getting anything we want. It is very rare to get anything in life without some degree of effort. Only if you win the lottery will you have everything without effort and even then you still have to go out and buy the lottery ticket anyway, so it's not free at all.

At times, you may feel that it's all very confusing and just too hard. We've done all that we possibly could in our life whether it is at work or at home. But things don't always work out well us we planned or hoped and we don't understand why. But that's what life is all about. Life is hard, we have to accept it. Once we do, we will feel better about our circumstances. Then you won't think of your situation as anything but what is common to everyone. But we

    Time was running out. Stakes were high. It was supposed to be a particular day for everyone including Miranda, a typical teenage girl. As usual, she went to school, then went home with the knowledge that an asteroid was to hit the moon later in the day. At first, nothing seemed to have happen until a noise almost like a sonic boom erupted from the sky. The moon appeared closer than ever in an eerie, unnatural sort of way. Almost suddenly, Earth was hit with tornadoes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. Out of the many people who witnessed this event, Miranda stayed strong and fought her way through the epidemic, even through the roughest of times.…

    So many people have ideas of things they want to do, whether they be business-related, something that scares them or even just asking someone else out on a date. Everyone has ideas about how they want to live their lives, but most people never wind up following through. They are so afraid of failure or of looking bad that they run from any kind of challenge. Then later in life, when they realize that they had all these opportunities and never took advantage of them, they regret it so much. A lot of people choose the easy way out in order to avoid challenges and barely ever choose to take the road less traveled just to see where it could take them. That is a risk that few people take because they never want the responsibility of having to work for something. Life can only be lived by those who work hard for their achievements and follow through on their ideas and goals. It is the people who never work for anything that are unhappy…
