Lovely

Life isn't easy on us, but for some reason I have become a lot more optimistic about things. I would say that life's troubles are beautiful, but they are not. Pain is not beautiful, but the the strength and inspiration that comes out of pain is beautiful. Sadness is not beautiful, but the compassion and support that comes out of sadness is beautiful. Suicide is not beautiful, but being able to feel so strongly about something is beautiful. Happiness can be beautiful, but it's too temporary to be truly beautiful. So I have been feeling sentimental about our lives and what experiences they bring us, but beautiful implies too much. They are lovely. Our lives are lovely and our experiences whether good or bad are lovely because they just are. Our lives are the way they are and there is certainly something lovely about that.
