An essay on life - Our metaphor for life (personal reflective essay)
Life experiences are generally consistent with everyone; however, we tend to perceive our lives as being much different from one another. One may associate their life with a complicated idea, in an effort to accept it by giving it a label; while another might not label their life at all, hoping that is the answer to acceptance. What I choose to do in order to give my life clarity is to associate it with a simple idea. This enables me to put every component of my life on the same level so I only ever have one thing to deal with, and that can be whichever part of my life I choose.

I find myself wondering where to turn, what to do and how to get the desired results when I try to solve a Rubik's Cube. It also seems like when one thing goes right another goes wrong.

Some people are satisfied with just settling with what they think they have no control over.
What if all the sides were the same color?
This is the simple idea I choose to associate my life with in order to give it clarity. A Rubik's Cube with all the same colors needs no meddling in order to be "solved". You never have to ask where to turn because everything will be the same anyway. The way they should be. When one thing
