Those whose lives seemed charmed
\nas if favored by gods<\/p>\n
with everything seeming perfect,
\nthe looks, the talent, the abilities,
\nthe luck, the love <\/p>\n
are often discovered beneath
\nthe veneer of blessed and enviable lives
\nto have had unimagined troubles<\/p>\n
consider a beautiful woman born
\ninto inexhaustible wealth she inherits
\nalong with her incomparable beauty<\/p>\n
who never has to work for a living,
\nwho seems to have everything anyone
\ncould ever want <\/p>\n
but after she dies, you read about all
\nthe troubles in her less than perfect life<\/p>\n
like<\/p>\n
men who only wanted her for her money<\/p>\n
or fake friends who wanted to cash in on
\nher abundant wealth<\/p>\n
or alcoholism and drug addictions<\/p>\n
or chronic mental health issues<\/p>\n
and on and on the undercurrent of problems arise<\/p>\n
as if those seemly favored by gods
\nare also cursed by them.<\/p>\n
