人生的无常 . 无奈
.
就在吃午饭的时候,我突然对人生有所感叹。 在爸爸与妈妈的对话当中,猛生了对生活的一种无奈。原来,在我们的周围, 在我过着我的幸福日子的当时,身边正在发生种种不愉快的事。听闻某个阿姨的家婆因为受到精神上的压力而导致精神分裂,做出了许多让孩子感到反感的事,得罪了身边许多曾经关心她的人。而最让我感到伤感的是,连她的孩子都想放弃这个母亲,没有一个人愿意去面对妈妈的问题, 抗起做孩子的责任。

okay im switching back to english! haha. besides that, the husband of my mom's sec school friend is currently dealing with a medical condition which has become a controversial issue in the marriage and perhaps the family.It's disconcerting enough to hear about the many problems that has arisen so far because of the illness, but the worst is that it doesn't seem like these problems are going to be resolved any time soon; it's like a long term struggle the family has to go through .
.
That aside, i've heard of another incident that has occured in another family; another victim who has created havoc in the family due to a mental illness. That compounded with the other 'tragedies' i've come to know, i feel that life can really be rotten at times, and I think such 'sufferings' are just part and parcel of this thing we call life and it can happen to any body and any one.
.
My first thought was that, why can't life just be happy for everyone? Why can't we just live happily; without family issues, relationship triffles, illnesses and worries? Why must there be so many obstacles and maybe hardships for people to endure, resulting in unneccessary unhappiness in the lives of those who's already bitter enough?
.
Then i thought, no , that shouldn't be the track of my thoughts. Instead, all these unfortunate stories i've heard should remind me to appreciate all the peace i have now and spur me on to equip myself with vast knowledge enough to alleviate such issues/hardships people are facing and to help those in need.
.
There will be no perfect life or a life without unhappiness, but we can always make the effort to step up to life's challenges and squeeze lemonade out of the rotten lemons. Even if things stay sour or bitter, at least we never stopped trying.
