Tension of Opposites.
"So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning in your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning."
"I don't allow myself any more self-pity than that. A little each morning, a few tears and that's all. I thought about all the people I knew who spent many of their waking hours feeling sorry for themselves. How useful it would be to put a daily limit on self-pity. Just a few tearful minutes, then on with the day."
Do you take care of others or take care of your 'inner child?' Return to traditional values or reject tradition as useless? Seek success or seek simplicity? Just say No or just do it?
Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, You have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them too- Even if you're in the dark. Even when you're falling...
This summer? So far, so good. Unforgettable, actually. And I'm keeping it that way by spending the majority of my summer nights living with my sister.
This whole choose-a-college-make-a-life-decision is making me sick. Literally.
Everything's been going down hill and I just want to be home.
