Shadows in my mind...
I consider myself to be quite a positive person for the most part. I want to see the best in people and believe there is a reason for everything and it will all turn out ok in the end.
Yet there are days that little voice in the back of my mind, the cynical, negative little imp lurking in the shadows, comes out to whisper about the world.
I look around and see people happy, content, caught up in good times and I want that to be me. Carefree with a future. Until the little voice says don't be silly, real life never works out that way.
I know it preys on my dark mood and the negative side of everything, that its not speaking of a totally bleak forward path...yet that little snapshot of a second, the hurt and longing echo in my mind long after the dark has faded.
