~I've always wondered why we go through tough times in life. Why do we feel pain; the kind of pain that feels like being cut with the sharpest knife? 
Is there a lesson to be learned when we are put in situations that we didn't expect to face? Or are we not supposed to expect any type of outcome for certain things? 
We were all put here on this Earth to carry out some kind of purpose in this world. Every animal, every plant, woman, man, boy and girl.
But what does it all mean? What is the lesson that this world, this life or universe is trying to teach?
Does anyone know the answer and if so, then how? I could really use a sign; some kind of answer? A clue? A sound? 
I'm not sure if there is only one single answer to make sense of the life we live and the world we live in. But one things for sure. I know that even though there's a side of cruelty and the unknown to this world, it can be a lot easier living in it once we find our passions. 
When I discovered my love for art, writing and acting as a child, I didn't know it would eventually have a power over me that did more for me than simply place on my face, a smile.
Following these passions of mine opened my eyes wider to see something more to life, by my surprise.
They taught me so much; how to be strong, how to feel free and how to stop searching so hard to find the so called "answer to life."
I think that the purpose of us being here for the time that we're given, is to find our place, our gifts in this world and in doing so, maybe we can help to change it.
There's a song by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis featuring Ed Sheeran that I'd like to quote some of the lyrics of that sums up everything that I'm attempting to say. "Don't try to change the world. Find something that you love and do it everyday. Do that for the rest of your life and eventually the world will change.
I guess the answers to life aren't something that you search for, but actually something you create. It might be up to us to make sense of it all and the talents we've been given could have a huge role in that to play.~
