Theatre
I like thinking, that life is a theatre. That we are all only actors, who want to be main characters. Unfortunately, it's impossible. We don't know how to play, what is our destiny and who watches us. We don't have a prompter, so nobody is going to tell us our lines, we have to figure it out by ourselves. We don't have a sheets of paper with screenplay. Everything depends on us. We don't even hear tips from our director! Maybe sometimes, someone. But it's rare. I would like to scream: "well, ok, but where is a dress rehearsal?!", but I won't hear any answer. We don't have any retake, can't go back in time and say or do something different. There is only one chance and this is the saddest part of our lives, I think.
We are all confused, because we don't know how to behave. Nobody prepared us for such events.
I don't want to play. I'm not a good actor. I want to stay back and be an extra in my own life. I would like to watch other people lives. And mine? It doesn't matter, someone has to be an audience.

I like to envision life as a theater. That we are all merely actors who desire to be the lead characters. Unfortunately, it's impossible. We don't know how to act, what our destiny is and who is watching us. We don't have a prompter; nobody is is there to feed us our lines. We have to figure it out on our own. We don't have a screenplay with our lines. Everything depends on us. We don't even hear the instructions from our director! Perhaps sometimes, someone ['someone' is unclear here]. But it's rare. It makes me want to scream: "Well, ok, but when and where is the dress rehearsal?!". No answer comes. We don't get to redo it; we can't go back in time and say or do something differently. There is only one chance and that is the saddest part of life, I think.
We are in a state of confusion because we don't know how to act. Nobody prepared us for life's unscripted events.
I don't want to act. I'm not a good actor. I want to remain in the background as an extra in the spectacle of my own life. I want to observe and not be observed. My life? I don't need to be at center stage; somebody has to be in the audience, after all.

This is very ambitious to translate something like this into English. It's a very good effort. I am sorry that my changes are not tracked in my correction but I hope it is helpful anyway.
