Life pains me


i think it needs no introduction its just another random set of questions along the lines of the title:

‘A raindrop hitting the window.

A teardrop splashing on the floor’;
Both are water droplets. One brings joy, the other comes out of joy. Its only sometimes that things like this matter; but then it does make a lot of difference.
Somehow its most of the times that the smallest of things that matter most. Like being able to an ice-cream before it melts or getting a last bench on a boring class or successfully reaching home without a ticket... these are the things, that bring a lovely smile to our face, when we look back at them and smirk. At the end of the day, all of us just want to be lucky. Not winners, not scholars but just lucky enough to remain happy.
“What everyone wants from life is continuous and genuine happiness.” - Baruch Spinoza
why is it that we don’t know what’s going to happen. Why is it that we don’t know that the scratch we have bought is a bogus? Why is it that we don’t know that the relations we walk into are going to break? Wouldn’t it be better to know these things beforehand so that we don’t have to face the breaking despondence?
Disappointments is one thing and pain another! Wouldn’t it be better to know what’s going to bring that stabbing pain? Its life to not know of the consequences, but then why is it that we walk into these mishaps? Why cant we stop our hearts from breaking? Why cant we stop our tears from flooding? Why cant we stop the people we love from walking out of our lives?
I question. I indulge.
Life pains me.
But again, ““The best way out is always through.”- Robert Frost
