Was it worth it to be happy for a little bit?
Even though it ended up sad
Or would it have been better
If the whole thing never happened
.

Life's tapestry is woven with contrasting threads
Moments of bliss and encounters with pain
In retrospect, it's easy to ponder and wonder
If avoiding the heartache would outweigh the gain
But consider the lessons, the growth, and the strength
That may have stemmed from that fleeting delight
For even in sorrow, resilience takes root
Building a foundation, preparing for the fight
So, was it worth it to be happy for a little bit?
Though it ended up causing you pain
The answer lies within, deep in your heart
A reflection of the person you became
Regretting the past won't alter its course
Yet embracing its teachings can shape your tomorrow
The journey of life is a series of choices
And every experience holds its own sorrow
So cherish the joy, and learn from the hurt
For both are essential, part of being alive
In the grand tapestry of life's design
Every thread, happy or sad, helps us thrive

I can relate to this so much. To me it depends on intention. If my intention was pure and I learned from the experience, then, I won regardless of the ending. But, there are situations we either put ourselves in, or just happen...life, and there's regret, and JUST pain. And yes, they still teach us, but....was it necessary? I don't know. You're right though! It's the way you, yourself see it and deal with it that really matters. Great read! Thank you!
Im glad you liked it
