LOST is real life.


I love LOST.

An experience with a close friend of mine
has recently caused this particular scene
to replay over and over again in my head.

"Why do you find it so hard to believe?"
"Why do you find it so easy?"
"It's never been easy!"

Could this statement be any more true?
We go throughout life believing
in one thing or another,
and at some point, no matter what that thing is,
our devotion and faith to it will be tested.

Passion and love are things
that make life so wonderful,
but they are also the emotions
that make life so difficult.
If we did not love or care for anyone or anything,
decisions and burdens would bear no weight.
This is the beautiful irony of life.

Life isn't about what is easy,
but it is about love and passion and emotion.
It is about taking something that we love,
and fighting for it---and that has never been easy.
But so what, right?
Since when has anything good in life
come when you sit around
and wait for it to arrive?
