Why do people always take life by the thorns? In life, when we get hurt, of course we might cry. We as humans take life so seriously. When we  are hurt, faced we danger, or go through a difficult time, we take everything to heart and think the worst of things. We never see past the bad to see the beauty in it all. If we lived our lives like a rose, life woud be much simpler. Wouldn't you admit that roses are so beautiful, but what makes us dislike them? The thorns? Of course, but why? Why should we dislike one of the most beautiful flowers in the world, beacause of their thorns? Their thorns are there to protect them from harm, so they can stay beautiful. They dont let hurt and pain get in their way of seeing their true beauty. So why should we? We should all be more like a rose and put back up our thorns because no matter who gets hurt or what bad things happen in our life, our beauty will always shine through.
