Just when you think things are sailing along smoothly, something comes up to disturb that calmness. ALWAYS. AS IN, NO FAIL. It has come to a point that I'm almost afraid when I'm too happy, waiting for that "pebble" to hit the water. Is this how strength of character develops? Everything seems tranquil one moment, then turbulent the next? Yea, so they say life is a rollercoaster. I never said I wanna be ridin' on it ALL FReaking time. I don't wanna get too strong, just enough to survive. I mean, what the hell for?
So every time something happens that gets me feeling down, I get this voice in my head that reminds me
".. think of the homeless people, of the sick and dying. You should be grateful for what you have".. Okay, I used to get it but now, I don't know anymore. So I guess I'm supposed to be thankful there are others doing worse than me? that others are less fortunate than me?
Is the glass half empty or half full? I can never answer that question. We only have one life to live. Our life expectancy is what, 50? 60 years? Can't I breeze along L-I-F-E peacefully? with my family and friends? Is it too much of a luxury? I am not asking for long life, wealth, nor fame. I just wanna be able to live life simply. Is that too difficult?????
