Sometimes Life feels like One Big Joke

Sometimes it seems like life is one big joke. A moment in time that repeats and repeats until suddenly it stops and we are no more. All just a cruel joke made at our expense. A life full of dreams, dashed on the shores of reality as it knocks us from our perch.

How do we escape the hell that we are in? How do we get out of the prison in which we find ourselves? Is there an escape? Can we ever be free? Are there even answers to these questions? Or is the fact that we are cognoscitive enough to ask the questions part of the joke?

These are the thoughts that wrestle in my mind as I attempt to find slumber. These are the fears that haunt my restless soul as I attempt to find peace. These are the weights that hold me down as I yearn for the freedom of a life fulfilled.

​Sometimes it seems like life is one big joke, and all we can do is laugh at the absurdity of it all as we attempt to find the joy in day to day living. ​
