Life is a right. It is also a choice.
To live is to see the daily wonders of existence
Be it the joy and ecstasy; or the pain and suffering.
We must be good to see these wonders.
To be good, it means our eyes are wide open
And every single emotion is worth enjoying.
If we are not good, we cannot reason this way.
We view the happiness and sadness in various dimensions. Not as a whole.
It should be whole. For everything has to be one.
Nature even knows it.
Two from male and female join to form one.
The spectrum of light from the sun of different colours forms one.
So, things have to be whole.
Therefore, it is one’s right to see these wonders.
It is also by choice to learn how to see these wonders.
Once you know that,
Life becomes a lot easier and less complicated
