"There is a story about the Greek Gods.
They were bored, so they invented human beings.
But they were still bored, so they invented love.
Then they weren't bored any longer.
So, they decided to try love for themselves..
and finally, they invented laughter, so they could handle it."
-Morgan Freeman

the feeling of surviving
the struggle to breathe
the fight to believe
the resistance to faith
the thoughts of fear
the loss of contentment
the fact of loss
the reality of doubt
the song of tears
the isolation
the lack of hope
the hope for joy
the daily trial
the dreams
and
the lesson in it all....

is hard.
