Hello again....two days in a row.......could this be a habit??
I have a question for you, my few but mighty............am I the only one who gets sick and tired of people pointing out the obvious, when you are at a bad spot in life??
For instance, my sister stated this: "if you are not where you want to be, then you must not want to be there very badly. Happiness is all in the perspective"
As if wanting something was all it took to have it.
Another example: "you have two wonderful kids" ok, yes I do have two wonderful kids, but is that my sole reason for existence....to have these kids?? So if thats the case, then I guess I could go ahead and die, cause they are pretty much done with my knowledge, and I am basically just an ATM.....
"You have your health" Um.no, actually I do not have my health...at least not at this moment, so again I ask you ...should I just die now??? "you are not homeless" again, Im supposed to just be satisfied, because I am not on the streets??
"at least you have a job" so then that would apply to someone who cleans sewers?? We are supposed to just go through life being satisfied with what we have right now??? And if we arent, then we just dont want anything better badly enough??
I want things, but there are obstacles that make it damn near impossible to get them, so who the hell are these family members, friends etc. to sit there and basically tell me to just shut up and eat the shit on the plate that Ive been served?????
To an extent, happiness is what you make it, but by no means does that mean you should just settle if you want more. And yeah, sometimes there are things that are in the way of what you want and you might not able to get what you want, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't still want it! You just keep on keepin' on, we'll still be here. ;)
ReplyDeleteYou always strive for more - when you quit striving you quit living. But, at the same time, you appreciate what you do have because you realize it could always be worse.
