::: Life :::

life is a puzzle.
no.
life is more than just a puzzle.
life is a puzzle comprised of a million little pieces, with no color, image or demarcation on each piece.
sometimes, you find pieces that fit together simply and easily.
sometimes, this happens by luck.
sometimes, this happens by searching.
other times, you spend an eternity trying to find two pieces that will fit.
sometimes, you finish one whole corner of the puzzle, and are proud of yourself for it.
other times, you spend a lifetime trying to put together an edge.
life.
life is a puzzle.
sometimes, a voice over your shoulder will help you locate a piece.
other times, that voice will lead you astray.
sometimes, you can spend an eternity just looking for the one, right piece.
other times, it’s right there in front of you.
sometimes, you don’t see it’s in front of you until you’ve thrown the other piece away.
sometimes, you’re so sure two pieces go together... until you find a better-fitting piece.
other times, you’ll never find two pieces that fit so well together.
sometimes, pieces appear to fit.
sometimes, pieces clearly don’t fit.
sometimes, you place pieces together that don’t fit, leaving you with a big portion of the puzzle that’s shambly intact.
if you’re lucky, or hard working, you’ll fit together a myriad of pieces as solid as... a solid.
sometimes, no matter how hard you try, or how hard you work, the best you can do is put together two pieces.
that’s alright.
it’s better than none.
life.
life is a puzzle.
no.
life is more than just a puzzle.
