The Balance

by Sheila   May 18, 2008


Life treats us this way
Is it true?
Or do we treat life a certain way?
Or could the real truth be that we make life?
This can hurt because if we make life and it's turmoil
Then it is what we want
Is this what we crave from life?
Life in reality is full of all emotion
Causing at times horrid moments
While other times will be happy, liberating moments

    Ha! This is what I think about constantly: if we have the power to control our existences, then we have, and choose not to use, the power to live in a world in peace. The question of if Is this life in turmoil what we deep down inside, really crave? touches on an important philosophical question: are we the makers of our own demise? I think we are. But, at the same time we are the creators of own existence as well, so I guess that there is the "balance."
