What Struggles May Bare
1 March 2005

"I see a beautiful city and a brilliant people rising from this abyss, and, in their struggles to be truly free, in their triumphs and defeats, through long years to come, I see the evil of this time and of the previous time of which this is the natural birth, gradually making expiation for itself and wearing out. . . ." Charles Dickens.

Life comes and goes. The time in which life bares struggles are the best of times, and yet the worst of times. This is when life has fallen into a state of imbroglio, yet we dust the dirt off ourselves to once again challenge what may come. What imperfection comes with our birth, in which a recondite series of events predestined for us twist and twirk the path that lie ahead of us? Without this struggle, what would we have to life for? Perfection is chaos, and nothing more.

It is our duty to make conjectures about life, even though we are clueless about what God has put forth in our futures. Taking risks isn't always a bad thing, especially when the case involves changing for the good, and overcoming the bad.

We are left alone to decide, by ourselves. God can only help us when we change the conditions within ourselves.
