the dance

Everyone's life is filled with a certain degree of pain and hardship. It's a part of life.

But I think there is beauty even in the hard times. Because the hard times make us appreciate the good times that much more. 

I think sometimes I get caught up in avoiding pain in life, but with great pain comes great joy. I chronically avoid relationships because of my fear of the loss, but it means I miss out on the beauty of love.

I need to start focusing on the beauty in this world.
