life= emotion + circumstance
emotion= (love + joy divided by hate + pain)
+
circumstance= (birth + conquest divided by death + shame)
so then love= (trust + hope) - (self + time)
divided by
(past hurt+ loss)
loss= (tears + pain) multiplied by (emptiness + anger)
so life = emotion + circumstance
={[(trust+hope)-(self+time) divided by (past hurt + loss)]+ (joy divided by hate+ pain)}
+
(birth + conquest divided by death + shame)
There is no mathematics to love and loss,
you dont add and subtract pain,
emotional language does not compute,
the equation of life is profane!
