frustration

i'm getting so tired of these strange messes that find their way into my life. things that normally wouldn't concern me or should never have involved me find a path into my mind, and it ends up taking all of my concentration just to attempt to fathom the strangeness. so many choices, so many possibilities, so many consequences no matter what i choose; why must everything always have a downside? i know; that's life. but why does life always have a downside? why aren't there some things that only hold positive outcomes? why does everything good have to come with at least one thing bad? why must everyone strive for their dreams if they know they will encounter some negativity with whatever outcome they receive? why does this happen? i just don't understand. why can't there ever be, just for an instant, a clear path to take? an answer, something that doesn't have to be debated by the conscience and heart first? why can't we just run with whatever happens? why is it so hard for the heart to be followed in its journey? why do we have such little faith in ourselves as people, as humans? why do we always feel that we're making the wrong decision for one reason or another, even when we're not? why can't some things just be SIMPLE? oh, the questions nobody can answer...
