Funny People

It’s funny how the things that make us the happiest can also bring out the saddest in us. We cherish the good times, hold them close, never to be kept too far away. The good times will always be with us to remind us that life really can be fun and games. We remind ourselves of the best so that we can forget the worst, but often the best can equally remind us of the worst; remind us of the smiles that have been lost; remind us of the memories we can only dream to create. A heart can be overwhelmed by emptiness when all logic should suggest a feeling of fulfillment, of humour, of enjoyment. Life has a funny way of bringing the world together even as we try to pull it apart. We dissect ourselves to try and discover why life is so complicated when the reality is nothing more than it’s awe-inspiring simplicity. A single smile can flood us with feelings, which ever they shall be. Every day is a new memory, and every day reminds us to smile, as well reminds us we may often be missing something worth smiling for. Life is irony in itself; it’s worth laughing at. We have all said that life can be funny sometimes, but maybe we're what's funny; maybe we’re all just funny people.
