Quote Prompt 6-Life Is Spectacular

"SUDDENLY YOU'RE RIPPED INTO BEING ALIVE AND LIFE IS PAIN, AND SUFFERING AND LIFE IS HORROR...BUT MY GOD, YOU'RE ALIVE AND LIFE IS SPECTACULAR"


we don't choose life,
         it's automatic.
we don't choose pain,
        it's instilled through
        circumstance.

but we can choose to
live positively through
gratitude.
 
           -optimism
                -ambition
                     -faith...
