Why is life a blend of glee and woe?
  • Life is a gift set for us to live and not just be. Either we use the life given to us and propagate or rot. Life has many things entangled in it. There is wide-ranging stuff that it offers. If everything were the same would we love that? If we all have the same color and same look then, would it be fun? We all need some diversity. That is why we have vibrant colors around, different people, different culture, and different food and so on. Sameness would be dull and boring.

  • Well, now the question is would it be lovely to see only sadness in life? Always enjoying wouldn’t be fun too. Don’t you think? I agree that happiness is awesome but if we don’t have times when we sit in sadness, I don’t think it would be cool. Well, I don’t know about you, but there is joy in sadness too. A joy which is unparalleled.


  • Glee and woe are the vignettes in life like the two sides of a coin. Each is designed for a purpose by the Divine. They have to stay in a balanced state otherwise, there might be hitches. Delight, pleasure, gladness, happiness are the glee aspects which provide us with gargantuan bliss. While the woeful aspects either teach us something or makes us stronger.

  • Everything beyond its limit is always precarious. That is why we see people getting out of control when melancholy takes over them. Seasons change naturally; if they don’t then everything would fall out of place. In the same way, in our life too, seasons change, figuratively speaking.

  • The season we experience today maybe, lovely and cheery or ugly and unclear. No one knows when it might change. But all that occurs has specific meaning in our life that we can discern only at the right time. It is said that every season is for a reason.

  • Imagine our life as a quiet sea, then we would never learn to face the ebbs and tides, we won’t grow, and we would be stagnant. So there needs to be a cause or a situation where we need to grow. It often comes in the form of worry, distress, misery, agony and so forth. If we learn to overcome it, then we will be lucrative.


  • Rebuffs often help us to grow as we get enhanced from the mistakes we make and move forward. If one keeps on being depressed about one thing then, trouble brews up. It is actually up to us, whether we want to get out of the woeful situation and learn from it or just keep on thinking about it and load much more stress on oneself.

  • Happiness is found in the simple and ingenuous things in life. It makes us hope for a better tomorrow. It kindles our ashes to grow into something exquisite. Nature provides us the unlimited glee which is like an amaranthine flower. Some find joy in spiritual meditation. Mirth is the strongest element that makes us interact, hang out and have fun with the people about. It helps us in blooming into a happy person.

  • Everybody, thus need both glee and woe in life. Through it, one can grow into something and stop being nothing. Everything in life ensues so that we learn some valuable lessons from it. So let us embrace it and move forward with the wonderful vignettes which happen in our life. At one moment in life, we will look back and ponder that whatever happened was for the better. Life is a blend, get used to it.
