The Land of What-If?
The Land of What-If? is a loathsome land. A land populated with unanswered questions, bargaining, heartbreak and loss.
It's a land nobody should ever have to visit, a land that, if life were perfect, wouldn't exist.
It wouldn't exist because nothing would ever go wrong. Every decision would be easy to make. We would all know, and intrinsically understand, that everything happens exactly as it should do. That everything happens for a reason.
And that no good can ever come from visiting or living in the Land of What-If?.
But life isn't perfect. It's uncertain. It's good. It's bad. It's up. It's down. It's hard. It's easy.
It's many things, all rolled up in to one crazy, mixed-up mess.
Life offers you hope with one hand, while smacking you across the face with loss in the other hand.
Life lifts you up, makes you believe that everything is going to be ok, while simultaneously dragging you down stomping on everyone that you love.
Life is a cruel beast. A tempestuous mistress. A fickle fellow.
Life doesn't always do what we want. Life doesn't always give us what we hope, beg and pray for.
Life is unfair. Unjust. Life doesn't discriminate.
Sometimes life just sucks.
Sometimes life gives you some perspective.
Perspective when you most need it.
But not always in the way that you want it.

But hope does exist, and with faith we begin to see some sense of purpose even if we don't entirely understand it. Big hugs to you all chicly xxxx
