Facts of Life

I've come to learn about the facts of life in a hard way. Most of my life has been centered on getting ahead in this lifetime. To stay afloat. Sometimes this brings to question our moral thoughts. I believe some would do anything to get ahead in this life. And then, there too, are upstanding citizens whose beliefs will never waiver no matter the situation. I wish sometimes that we were all on the same journey, but this belief of what life should be and where we are going is mostly a false make-up. I write in hopes of understanding the motivation of individuals and just where they think they are going and what they believe they will accomplish. Explore with me and let's see where the human mind believes its final destination is and why we make decisions based on that belief. The true facts of life just may reveal themselves in passing.
