Life strikes us as being an infinite strand of wondrous and rare excursions offering us obscure, distinct, magnificent, and often abject passages. It's a seemingly infinite loop without beginning or end.

We must cling to the good things in life. For although life and all its glories...great pleasure, joy, and delight; more often, it feels crowded with turmoil, suffering, and hardships.

Life is distinct for but a minuscule moment. We feel that in a blink-of-an-eye we will permit these moments to beat us down and leave us bereft.

Life can also be very dark, overshadowed by loss, agony, and defeat. If we allow it, life can leave us momentarily incapacitated without the will or the way to carry on.

All the same, without the entirety of these wavering factors, we would not evolve into well-rounded individuals. Or, have the aptitude for achieving our goals and accomplishing tremendous triumphs in our lives.

Without the disasters and misfortunes that we are faced with and endure, we couldn't possibly appreciate life's extraordinary gifts.

We must remember that these combined moments and passages are what is called our sojourn in life.
