Have you ever wondered why is life full of disappointments? There are times you wonder if it is true that every cloud has a silver lining, when all you have stumbled upon are clouds accompanied with thunderstorms and lightning. Well I say, ride the cloud, and brave the thunderstorms and lightning!

Life sucks because things do not always go the way you want it to be. You hate the suprises that life have been dishing out to you as not only they have caught you off guard each time, but they have made your life more miserable. You wonder if the guy up there is playing some kind of perverse games with you as the paths that you have chosen are often filled with booby traps.

But life is a choice, not a chance. Life is not all about luck, but it’s about making the right move. If luck has its way in life, no amount of determination, perseverance and pure hard work will make a person successful.

We do not seek the silver lining in clouds, but we should empower ourselves to create those silver linings.

I am now standing on some very dark clouds, with fiery lightnings and thunders around me. I cannot see the sun yet, but it doesn’t mean it is not there. The day will come when the clouds around me will have silver linings, all painted by me, and those beside me. I will live to see that day.
