Change is inevitable
And that made us sell our dreams to the Northern man
Whoever knew change could be that expensive?
The dawn of new hope,
Schrodinger’s cat, like Pandora, is chilling in its box,
But even without opening the box,
We all knew all hope was dead.
Whoever knew new hope could be this hopeless?
You’re writing your autobiography. What’s your opening sentence?
I cried. And I cried again. At least, that was what my mummy told me I did when she gave birth to me.
To my dedicated readers,
I say hello.
And to my new readers,
I say welcome.
Being a while since I dropped here,
Life has been unfair,
Can’t complain, but that’s why we call it Life.
The romance I always write about has been abolished from my heart.
The pain I write about has suppressed all feelings of hope.
The older we grow, the more difficult it becomes
But we have to move on and continue to struggle
To fight!
To move!
To wake up and keep the cycle going.
Hello You, after every hardship comes ease.
There is a phrase that we always throw around when we’re having conversations. It is a common enough saying that it has almost become a proverb in its own right. The phrase? Life is unfair. Yes! Now you see that I’m right about people always throwing it around.
This piece is not about the origin, usage, or accuracy of the phrase. I am writing this to address the “unfairness” of life. Life is never meant to be fair. Life also known as nature, is the epitome of unfairness. The weak are at the mercy of the strong. The good are bullied by the bad. In nature, only the strongest or the most cunny will survive to see the light of the next day.
The design of life is meant to be unfair. Check your fingers and you will agree with me. Even our fingers are not equal. Sharing the same womb does not guarantee the same amount of intelligence or success later in life. The moment you are born weak or with a defect, you are automatically at a disadvantage in the race of life. As a human, being born into a poor family shows you the unfairness of life even before you grow up.
Nature is never meant to be fair. The moment you look around and life is perfect, pinch yourself and wake up from the daydream. Life is unfair. Life is unbalanced. The earliest you accept that the nature of life is unbalanced, the happier you become.
Life is unfair. So, focus on getting as much peace and happiness as you can derive.

A million ants nibble on my cerebral cortex,
An unlimited number of Brazilians dancing samba in my brain.
My head is a chaos of thoughts and white noise.
Sometimes, I just wish the brain will split!
The joints in my body want separation,
Every ligament asking for a divorce,
Couldn’t keep the bones and muscles in line,
Sometimes, the pain is unbearable!
I huffed and puffed, and puffed and huffed,
Two minutes work,
And scream I would.
When will this pain stop?
This pain is here to stay,
You just have to learn to live with it
