For some reason...

Here I am again, failing to cope with the mysteries of life, its purpose, and my role in it. Wondering as well, do we have roles? Are we humans simply the result of probability?

...I shouldn't look too far into it. I know where this line of thinking leads and where it stops.

Summer has begun. After a paper and final examination, I will be finished with my 2nd semester and half way through the program. The future is only somewhat less ambiguous and terrifying than before, but of course I remain optimistic. I am spoiled by good fortune.

How can I dare assume that everything will go right for me? Granted.. it has always. I live a life devoid of tragedy. I know that it cannot continue this way.

I am aware of my shortcomings and have true intentions to overcome them. All I desire is peace, but I have to overcome myself in order to find it.

I must remember always what brings joy into my life and cherish it.
