The Life Dance

Because we are all human, we all endure trials. Some of the time these trials can be hills and some of the time these trials can be mountains. It is hard to overcome them but it is best to know we all experience them. Whenever you may feel confused or hurt, you can rely on the people around you to make you feel better. One trial, which can either surface devastation or a beautiful dance is death.

Life has the same chronological order for everyone. On certain days, we come into this world. We become a neonate or a newborn baby. We learn and grow mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Whenever you may feel alone or different from the rest of the world, remember everyone else has similar goals in life. Everyone wants to be successful in school or in their career and everyone wants to have peaceful relationships. Even though this may seem unrealistic, just know you can always allow people to comfort you in your time of trial. Life basically becomes a dance. Sometimes it may act as a Jazz dance and sometimes it may feel as a Hip-Hop dance. Overall, dances will have to end but it does not mean they cannot start again. In addition, it is your choice to have either a devastating dance or a beautiful dance no matter the situation.        

For example, I just attended my great-grandmother's funeral. Even though death may seem as a devastating trial, I was actually quite happy for her. I have several reasons why. For one reason, she lived a beautiful life. I loved visiting her and getting to know her. In addition, everyone has to die. Even though that seems as quite a negative reason, it can actually be a very positive reason. We can all learn and accept death as an end to a dance. Even though the end sounds depressing, memories for the third example can always bring back the exquisite ballet. My happiness for her life heals my sadness for her departure.

In conclusion, you have the choice to either hate or love life. Trials can be very difficult or very easy. The people around you can help and comfort you when you need them to. Life is a dance and can be very beautiful. Everyone has to die but memories can bring them back. You can learn to love death the same way you can learn to love life.
