Paradise Or War zone?

Is life a paradise or war zone? For kids, paradise is when they get their favorite toys and war zone is when they fight with their siblings for a piece of cake. As we grow older, our life gets a new term - "Competition" . Here again, paradise is when you secure the highest, and war zone is when you fail in what you do and keep grumbling. 

Paradise is when luck favors you and war zone is when you have to struggle past thousands of hurdles to reach your goal. Paradise is when you get the most peaceful end to your life and war zone is when you have numerous debts to pay and yet you have no time, and you suffer a painful death. 

Paradise is when the people you need the most, always stay by you no matter what, and war zone is when you search for people around you, but they are nowhere to be found. 

Dear reader, we live only once, a person is the luckiest when he gets the chance to taste both paradise and war zone. It is we who make ourselves face these two terms and which determine our life. Expectations hurt my friend, so do not expect peace or war out of any situation before hand.
