What Do You Think?

When I hear somebody sigh, "Life is hard," I am always tempted to ask, "Compared to what?"

  1. I think it's probably in comparison to the 'happy ever after' we may have been led to believe it would be or wanted it to be as children.

  2. Of course it's hard! Solving all the problems that come our way is what makes us the people we finally become. I always think "Life is Good," because no matter what happens to me, that Good Something-Or-Other is always waiting for me to look up, see it, and smile.

  3. Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive. ~Elbert Hubbard

    And I would also add: "Life is not what happens to us but what we do with it" (from somewhere)
