Behind every happiness, there lies a story of hardship that had to be faced beforehand.

There is no such thing as a spoon fed happiness or even a success. For each and every effort plays a big role in contributing to the award given at the end of the ordeal, that satisfactory feeling that it had all been worth it, that it was all necessary to begin with.

We all have our own stories to tell the world, but what we dont realise sometimes, is that the others had their own stories too, stories that made them for who they are today. And when we listen to them, listening to them sincerely, we subconsciously open ourselves to what other possibilities of a 'happy ending' would turn out to be like. Such happy endings should inspire us, to create our own happy ending and not trying to be photocopy machines, thinking that we too could have the exact happy ending as they had. After all, we all live our own lives, we decided what we do, and our lives are only dependent on what we do. Though we have similarities every now and then, but we never find two individuals having the exact DNA profiles, personalities, and what more, life?

If you do stop to wonder, why is it that you would have to go through so much trouble when you were to do something. Be it organising a trip, planning your future, or even deciding what to eat. Sometimes we were spoilt with choices that we just dont know which was the best option. Some would have to go through a longer and much more gruelling journey before they could find their happily ever after. You hear people telling you stories, sometimes, you feel as though your journey had been a rougher one and you couldnt bother less about what the other person has to say. But hey, a little listening doesn't hurt, does it? It's just that weird pleasure we have when we share our journeys with others, surely you'd like to be heard too. After all, it is not your responsibility in determining their happily ever after, it would still be their own effort anyhow.

By the end of the day, those rough paths would end up with us finding what we all have been searching for, our happily ever after moment. I used to think happily ever afters were bullshit. Well, I guess cause the journey has yet to reach its end yet, and it does feel like I am reaching it somehow, someday. I will. I definitely will. And if you thought you found it, but suddenly something else comes up and tosses everything upside down, it just means that you havent reach it yet. You'll get there someday. The day where you feel genuinely happy and sincerely peaceful, both in your heart, mind and soul.

Nobody is born wicked.
