MY VOCAB PRACTICE
Nobody wants to suffer sadness, but why do people just say whatever they want regardless of what others may feel because of their words?
The foolishness of humanity is beyond comprehension.
They have the willingness but they don't have the courage and the perserverance to act.
Everyone has a darkness in their heart and some people are hiding it behind their smile.

Good work!
MY VOCAB PRACTICE:
Sadness:
The sadness that I felt after losing my brother didn't hit me until ... the storm came crashing through the window.
Foolishness:
Most of us will persist in our foolishness just to prove the other wrong.
Willingness:
I wish I'd take the action to allow myself to have more willingness to test my fear and move through it.
Darkness:
If you've never seen the light, how can you tell there is darkness.
Good work!
How can one find light if s/he has not passed thru the dark night of the soul?
How would they even know what they were fighting for if they did not pass through the darkness to the light?
Congratulations @majes.tytyty!
