Life, and why it sometimes sucks!

Have you ever wondered why life sometimes sucks? I mean, God's supposed to look after us right? and have our best interests at heart isn't he? So why does he sometimes let us go down the wrong road? An old gravel road with lots of potholes, when your car has got hardly any gas left? Instead of a newly tar sealed highway buzzing with life, comings and goings and has gas stations every 100m?
Well I think I know the answer! We are supposed to learn from our mistakes right, and we can't do that if we don't make any!! Have you ever heard the quote: 'What doesn't kill you makes you stronger?' Well we can't get any stronger if we aren't challenged can we?! So God sometimes puts crazy ideas in our head and sometimes we just whizz off and do them without thinking of the consequences or anything like that!
(This particularly is what most young people do, whizzing off at a rapid rate of knots doing whatever pops up in our crazy minds! But to all the parents out there... do not despair! we will start acting like normal human beings and think before we act, roughly about the age of 25! so that's only about another 12 years (give or take a few!)
But now i must stop writing because there is no more room left!
If you have any questions about life or why it sometimes sucks please do not hesitate to comment and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible!
