The messages that surround us say that we deserve happiness. That life is good. That life will give us what we ask if we are willing to work for it. My friend, life will not give you anything. Not because it is evil or cruel. But because it has not the capacity to give. It is simply there. It can be experienced. It can be drank. It can be explored. But it is not a wishing well. It is simply there to do with as you please.
