A strange state of mind...

Sometimes you find yourself in a weird place. A strange state of mind. How did I get here, in this point in my life? You end up surprising yourself, and who’ve you become. The type of person you once aspired to be is not there anymore, you’re left with the remnants of that person, and the existence of another. Someone unfamiliar, that you secretly…loathe. It’s a terrible way to think, loathing yourself, and the type of human being that you’ve become. Ambitions and goals that were there before cease to be a part of you. You can try so hard to grasp them, reach out, try to remember them. But in the end you have to face your new identity. And in turn, work with what you’ve got, and try and turn things around. Not for people, not for your parents, friends, but for yourself. You cant rely on anyone these days for anything really. Trying to be a self-reliant human being is one of the hardest things to accomplish, because we need people. We are dependent on so many things, and the most important one, which we often take for granted or disregard…love.

Many people confuse love for something that you may find in another human being, to share and connect with someone. This quest to find love, to find meaning for your life, in another person is….quite dependent and ridiculous. Love can be found in a stranger’s smile, a kind hearted action, a nice card, hec even a text msg. The point is, love is all around us, we just need to open our eyes and start viewing life in a different way. Instead of waiting around for something good to happen, make it happen. There is more good than evil in this world, we need to remember that.

  1. I kind of love your inner emo. It's that darker side of me too, but I'm trying to move past that.
