i did not want to stir your emotions but this does not have to be bad, necessarily :-)
i have learnt that life means suffering, but too often i have screamed and begged and cried that a little bit less pain would do the job as well. it is like phoenix rising from the ashes, i get destroyed and arise from the remains stronger, wiser and better than before.
this seems to be part of my karma because i learn the hard way only. way too often i have been very close to death, the reaper and i are good aquaintances, but it is not my time to go yet. sometimes i have been waiting for death hopefully as i could not bear this world anymore.
but it's worth to stay alive and keep learning. sometimes i wish i could become 200 years old to have more time to bring myself to completion, to perfection.
