'Chasing Little Joys'

Title; "Chasing Little Joys"

For quite some time now, I've become desensitized to my challenges 
to the reality of my existence. 
I've been holding on to any moments of joy that provide relief 
even if it's just for a few minutes in order to drown out the constant ache in my heart.

where I can shield myself from the demands and pressures of the world.

Life, a maze filled with unknowns, is filled with ups and downs,
laughter and tears, love and heartbreaks.
No matter how tightly you try to control it,
everything twists. Turns lie ahead, both delightful and devastating.

Amid it all, show yourself grace and love 
And perhaps, just perhaps, brighter days will eventually dawn.

I can't claim numbness, for I feel  every feeling in its raw form
I wonder if I'll ever stop chasing those moments of joy,
since sad days are inevitable at the end of the day.
