It's free... or is it?

The Best Things In Life Are Free. I always hear these words often. But I wonder if they are really free. Happiness is free, but for me it is hard to achieve. I can't seem to grasp the real meaning of happiness. I laugh, yes. Some people make me smile, yes. Chocolates made my face light up, yes, that's true. However, all these are just temporary. You know, the feeling just passes by and loneliness slips in again. And all of a sudden you're reminded that you are alone, in life. Love is free. My pets gave me that feeling of being loved. My sister is awesome. She makes me feel that I am not alone in my everyday struggles. Her presence is love, I should say. But when they're not around, the feeling subsides and I am reminded again that I am alone. Kisses are free. They are freely given by a friend, a family and loved ones. And these gestures made you feel of belongingness. And for that moment in time, you are free to be yourself. You may laugh, cry and just be silly. But again, it is temporary. When these people are not around, you are alone. They may be free alright but they are just temporary. So is the pain and struggles in life. I am not complaining of these free perks in life... because without them, I am not considered alive. (c) Photo from google images.
