If life would have been a bed of roses, would we ever realise the importance of the flower?

Life! What a wonderful thing it is. The greatest, biggest and the loveliest gift from the almighty to humanity.
Each second we live is indeed precious, because each second passed, is each second earned and gone.
We need to understand that each second we live needs to be "earned" and to earn something labour is required, things don't come easy! Yeah :D
Then why is it, that each hour of labour comes with sorrows, complaints and disappointments? When why and how do we become so selfish, despite of being aware of whatever has been mentioned above?
If life would have been easy, trust me then, you wouldn't have agreed with me on this, that life is the most beautiful gift given by god to us, is it worth living without challenges! Remember, nothing in this world comes easy for anyone.
You gotta be strong and put In efforts.
Next time, when ever you raise your hands for pray, do not ask god for no challenges...ask him for strength to fight those challenges and earn your second of life.
