"Life is hard THUS happy"
It's no longer "life is hard but happy" nowadays. We always wish that in some weird cosmic ways each of our lives would change. The grass is always greener on the other side. But why is that? Because while we just sit down and look, dream and wish, hope and wait, our neighbours are buying carpet grasses, fertilizers and hiring a gardener. That is real life. People who make it are people who actually do something to make it happen. I for once, am actually moving from my hammock and just admiring with jealousy of my neighbour's precious petunias and green green grass, gone in and starting to calculate my money on just paving my entire garden. Yes it's a lousy metaphor. But just think about what I'm trying to say here.
But really, how do people document real life, because when you look at it, it's becoming more fiction each day. The headlines, the bread-lines...and now my long list of deadlines. Sometimes I wonder, what actually happened to all our dreams as a kid when everything used to be possible, to the innocence and power that we used to have, and the capability of being just content with everything. Is this really the life that we've chosen?
Right path, wrong path. It doesn't really make a difference now. So my garden might only have patches of grass mixed with ugly soil and weeds. If i really wanted those perfectly green grass my neighbour has, I would have done that ever since I moved in 4 years ago. But now, as I said it wont make a difference anymore. I'll just paved it all up and place potted plants once I've collected enough money. Yes, that's what I'm going to do with my life. All the shit holes I've been going through daily, I'm just going to ignore them, and think on the bright side. But before all that, there would be a lot of things I'd have to stabilize and strengthen in myself.
There goes another one of my rambling entries....at 2am...
