“What happiness is there is not purchased with more or less of pain?” Margaret Oliphant
It is not easy to maintain a positive outlook. Frankly, listening to the nightly news can be an exercise in functional living. The news is depressing.
With all the objects that seem to fall in the way of our lives it also no simple task to remain on our intended life’s path.
Despite all the hindrances we find our way towards the ephemeral light of happiness through struggle, loss, and triumph. It is like love – no one wants to lose it and yet we know death and disease are life’s constants. Sooner or later we will be bereft of our love. With this knowledge, who would not surrender to the bliss of being in love today?
