It Is What It Is...

I admit, I am not contented with my life. I am one of those people who think that life is unfair and incomplete and that there is a lot owed me.


But I also accept that it is what it is. It was what was dealt me. I may not like it but I do accept it & try to change everything for the better.


That is why I am surprised that a friend who has what I believe a wonderful life so angry with her life. 


Admittedly, I don't know everything that goes on with her, I am not with her every minute, I haven't even seen her in years, but we keep in touch. 


Some people are contented with having a comfortable life: a loving family and significant other, a good job and a place to call one's own. I also know people who are like me: discontented and still searching for the elusive feeling of contentment. 


My friend has a loving mum, a sibling who is also her best friend, a wonderful significant other, a stable employment & her own place, and yet, she feels anger toward whatever it is.


It saddens me that she feels this way. I pray & hope that she recognizes this anger & resolve it. She's a wonderful person who deserves the wonderful things she has today. I hate for her to throw it away & give in to anger.


I too have anger issues, who doesn't? If life is not to one's own liking, strive for change. That was what other friends & my relatives taught me. Continue searching for what will make one happy. 


I am still searching & will continue to do so till I do not know when. 


Life is what it is...but I believe that there is always room for change.
