I have learned to believe that life is beautiful.
Life in all its conversations, work, euphoria, and humanity.
But no less important is life in all its conflict, terror, uncomfortableness, and misunderstandings.
If my life ended today and you asked me, "was it worth it". I would say the suffering is the reason why we live. Not to suffer unwillingly, but instead for a cause.
Dirty rugs, dusty mats, and decaying centipedes taught me to appreciate a clean home.
The terror of a mundane and purposeless life allowed me to rediscover the euphoria of being an entrepreneur.
The loneliness of chasing a dream allowed me to find like minded friends who have their own unique obsessions and passions not limited to mine.
I believe life is the most beautiful thing in the world because the longer we live, the more we understand that suffering is just another step of the process.
and like Kobe probably once said?
the process is the dream*
I believe life is beautiful and suffering is tolerable when you believe in the power of the mind, the creativity of the individual, the indomitable human spirit that we all possess.
So please don't forget to follow your heart, believe in the process, and find the others.
because life is beautiful when you're living your life your way.
