Life is quite funny...(sometimes)

You can't help but laugh sometimes at the most tragic horrific things that happen in your life, because sometimes it leaves you speechless and all you're left with are not words, or secretions, but just sounds; weird sounds that come out of your mouth and muscles that spasm and contract around your ribs.

Life works in very funny ways (depending on how you look at it, perhaps in another post I would say it's shitty, and yet in another sad) because as soon as it looks good something bad will happen. Therefore, never become too comfortable my friends.

I write this post as a metaphor of my life. I went for a run got motivated and told myself  "You're strong. You're right, I am strong....I'm strong!!" and then what happened? Immediately, I tripped and fell and scraped my palms, skinned my knees and crushed my iphone. Yes, I learned how to walk 22 years ago. I guess experience isn't everything is it. But I got up and laughed because in that moment, I could have given up and said you know what life is sucky and then been super frustrated at myself and after the laughter subsided that did happen, but not as much. More of a "oh man, this stinks" vs. "wow..really? nothing ever good happens to you, you're cursed and you suck."

But with a cracked phone, skinned palms and a scraped knee guess who has the last laugh? I do, because whatever life throws as you, sometimes right after something good comes your way, you'll get through it. Get up, brush yourself off and move on. Put one foot in front of the other and just move on...

Is anyone else's life as such? Tonight's incident is just a humble metaphor of my life. Nothing comes easy!
