Guarantee

Life doesn't come with a guarantee.

I mean, it does.  The major one.  Death.  We're guaranteed death.

We're also guaranteed eternal life.  If we so choose.

(I guess we have eternal life regardless, but good or bad depends.)

But I'm not talking about spiritual things.

Or afterlife things.

I'm talking about life.

And nothing is guaranteed:

Try hard, you still might fail.

Achieve a dream, and it can be snatched from you.

Pray and pray, but still fear and worry.

Want and desire, life still might pass you by.

And that's life.

Uncertain, Unknown, Unkind and Unguaranteed.

Would we really want it any other way?
