Fragile
What the events of the past few days have taught me is that
life is truly fragile. So much of life
is not about having success, shining in the sun, or thriving. Life is about our ability to endure, to be here day after day, year
after year. And there are so many obstacles
and challenges and structures that try to keep us from enduring, from surviving. Some days are peaceful and calm. Some days you spend each and every waking
moment scratching and clawing to keep your head above water. And then other days all of the fighting to endure
seems to be worth it—you have a small piece of happiness that you grasp with
both hands. Sometimes the happiness is
fragile, and other times it simply endures.
