The Facts of Life

People create stories to make sense of the world.

Always remember:

Life doesn't make sense.

And though we like to believe differently:

Bad things happen to good people.


So the point of life is to come to terms with these facts and work within them.

More like, Neon Owl. Your insight and wiseness makes me jealous... :]

If bad things happen to good people, then do good things happen to bad people?

That would be so unfair.

Neon Owl, I like it.

I think there are thousands of examples of that daily....so I guess the great adverture of life is coming to terms with them.

Like how i should come to terms with having no life whatsoever if i want to raise up my algebra grade this quarter? and how i might have to take ITA next year instead of moving straight on to pre-calc?... meh.
