Fate has a cruel way of playing with our lives. Daintily swinging the prospect of death right above our heads. In an istant that mysterious entity can decide whether you live or die, and for some the later is hard to accept. Contentment is a state well sought after, and the road to solace is paved with sorrow and despair. Only after we walk down that path of torment will we be free... be free to live on, if not physically... spiritually.
