Happiness & Heartache

Two words that don't belong in the same sentence; happiness and heartache. The words bring different memories for different people. Some of it laughing, some of it crying. One we seek, the other we avoid. And sometimes we risk one for the other, or should I say despite?

In the end, we will all have experienced heartache, our efforts to avoid it futile. Some of us will have experienced happiness, regardless of how hard we work for it. The ability to describe either escapes us.

But it is an illusion. Happiness and heartache are the same thing. They are both part of living, and one cannot exist without the other. So, sit back and enjoy what you've got. There's nothing you can do to change it. Just relax and enjoy the ride.
