Life isn’t about the struggle.



           Human beings are built to struggle. Many say we are made up of two parts, the body and the mind. There is nearly always conflict between the two. Our bodies may be old but we feel young. We may physically desire the affections and attentions of another, but our minds may guide us away from that person for various reasons. These two simple examples illustrate to us that even on at our most basic level of existence we are struggling. As individuals we struggle with ourselves.



            Then we get up in the morning and the first person we meet has ideas and plans of their own that are completely dissimilar to our own. So now, not only are we struggling with ourselves but we have to factor in the desires of others and acknowledge their struggles and problems.



              Then to confuse it all many of us have been brought up within a religious context. Even those who call themselves agnostics and atheists have chosen a belief (or lack of) system to further complicate their struggle.



               So my fellow glowers, you are at war with your own bodies, the people around you and an invisible force that created you (or you are clueless to why you are here which is a tough position to be in too). So what can you do? Surely there must be something you can do to make life easier. Well my fellow glowers, my advice would be...... accept it, and move on. Essentially 'Get Over It!' The struggle will always exist, but you can choose how much importance to give it. Life isn’t about the struggle. It is about everything but the struggle.
