Today's Horoscope
All signs:
The stars see how life treats us sometimes. They watch as it randomly takes everything we have. They see how it haphazardly slams us to the ground with no warning. The stars watch as we helplessly flail and just try to stay afloat when all hope seems lost and it can't get any worse.
And then for good measure, it manages to get worse.
The stars watch as we get our hearts broken time and time again, and they see us struggle with the fact that we often never find a satisfactory reason as to why. We do everything right, and the people who love us leave us anyway, sometimes in the cruelest way possible.
They see us take care of ourselves and our loved ones, only to have disease or horrid circumstance strike us down. They watch us strive for greatness and to try to make the world better, only to have it met with indifference or scorn.
They see our love go unrequited, our prayers go unanswered, our reasons for living struck down methodically, one by one. We often glibly repeat the mantra that life is not fair, but the reality of that is soul crushing at times. We are in control of very little in life, yet the things we can control are immense.
The stars also see that we still find some reason to go on if we look for it. The stars know that even with all this weight of everyday living, that we can still decide to keep going. We can learn to let go of failure and heartache, loss and bereavement. We can persevere and discover new magic and a new path out of the darkness.
Billions of us do it everyday.
Billions.
The stars know that you can too, and they marvel at us and take pride in us. Even with all that, even though we are devastated and dismantled, and have the cruelest tricks of fate visited upon us time and again, still our ragged hearts beat on.
And that is how we balance the scales against wicked chance and debilitating chaos, and find the strength to return ourselves once again to the light, and to the waiting arms of love.
