the other day, i was talking to someone about our life here in korea. they said that this was one of the best and easiest times of their life, but actually it was hard because now they have to leave that comfort and make it difficult so that they can continue to grow through suffering and struggles.
i don't know, but when i hear stuff like that it kinda turns me off.
i don't like the idea that life is about struggling, and whoever suffers the most wins, and whoever lives laughing and being happy can never grow and become a good person. of course i think you can gain a lot and a certain amount of struggle is needed to have a deeper understanding of things, etc, but i don't think it should be your goal in life.
and idk i think it's so nice to give joy to others, but how can one do that if you're not joyful yourself?
i was wondering if it was okay that this is how i feel, and then last night i read this:
"even if a person becomes an absolute being, or establishes an absolute purpose, it will be of no use unless this person is joyful. Our daily lives should be joyful." -smm
that makes me feel like god really loves us.
i think that we all have a different approach on life that makes us who we are, and helps us achieve and live the way that is most fulfilling. if we all saw life the same way, it would be so boring right? i don't think a certain way is wrong or right,
but at least i know i'm allowed to be happy haha

i wish my parents allowed me to think like that.. i really admire you.
ReplyDeletebut struggle usually is the most useful tool to help you grow isn't it?.. joyful through struggles, does that make sense? like even when you can't make things the way they can make you happy, you still learn to be happy..? i mean the ability to be joyful in any situation.
i don't know i really wish that day would come when we could just be happy and truly happy. without any more sufferings on this world.
ff. i can't breathe
