Obstacle coursed life.

The world is definitely not perfect. A 5 year old could tell you that. Life is also definitely a challenge. It can be so hard sometimes. It's like an obstacle course really, The goal is to get to the end. It looks simple enough, and others make it look easy. But when you get out onto the track and try it for yourself, it's the hardest thing ever to exist. You deal with people, some who are great, and others who scar you. Some who you love, some you do not. You deal with loss, you deal with hatrid. You deal with illnesses, you deal with fitting in, you deal with pressure, with failure. You deal with emotions. You deal with physical and mental pain. But then (just like an obstacle course) you have the little cups of water and juice and snacks on the side. The good stuff. That is what keeps those obstacle runners going. What allows them to take a break for a moment so they can catch their breath, then keep going. That is exactly like life. If the runners can finish the race.. why can't I ?
