Answer 5

Life is not always easy. If you feel something good was taken away from your life, do not worry, because something different will be added somewhere else in your life. Bad days will pass and the good ones will come. (Right now I realised I forgot to use the word grateful.) So let us be grateful!

La vida no es siempre fácil. Si sientes que algo bueno fue restado de tu vida, no te preocupes, porque algo diferente será añadido en algún otro sitio en tu vida.. Los días malos pasarán y los buenos vendrán. Ahora mismo me di cuenta de que usar la palabra agradecido. ¡Así que seamos agradecidos!

!

"...será añadido en algún otro sitio/lugar en tu vida...Ahora mismo me di cuenta/me he dado cuenta de que...Así que seamos..." :) - Cordobesa, Apr 28, 2012
