um. i'm awake.. because i'm finding some kind of peace in this grundgy hole of an apartment. for some reason.. i don't know if you've all had this moment, but if you've just been listening to playlist for a really long time.. and then it gets to the end and there is silence but you don't notice it and then you realize that you're listening to the silence and the sounds in the room.. or i'm just crazy.
my roommate and i are really messy people. just naturally messy. its horrible.. we have to fight against it.
its sad when there are used disposable things that are just sitting there waiting to be thrown away, cups paper plates and plastic silverware.. etc
i've noticed that it really gets to me when people whine and complain. i mean.. of course we all voice our problems.. but some people are in the habit of just.. making the that the core of every conversation.. its draining.. i guess its not there fault because habits are easy to fall into and most people dont realize it. but.. key facts: no one's perfect, everyone has problems, whatever the problems are they aren't going to kill you (plus cancer kids rarely complain), so just move on.. its almost like these people are waiting for the day that they don't have task a,b,&c and problem d,e,andf but the reality is that that day isn't coming. so you might as well embrace it instead of living your life around what you haven't, don't have, and can't do... no one wants to hear the details of everyone elses trivial problems.. i'm sorry it just really bothers me.. and most people.. people like happy people. people like people who care about the ideas, views, substance of other people, people like to feel like they are being listened to, people like to feel comfortable and friends shouldn't remind them of the ROCK of Sisyphus.. the ever present tasks, trials, and tribulations.. soo shit give it a rest
Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. **Forget yourself**
Henry Miller
agh.. if more people would just try to attempt this.. just a little bit everyday.. instead of worrying about mundaneness.. GOD YOU'RE SO DAMN MUNDANE. just.. try.. to overcome your petty insecurities, your petty weaknesses, your stupid ass predjudices, your damn judgemental behavior, your self-deprecating fits, your hey everyone feel sorry for me, your Well, life isn't worth it attitude, your why does this always happen to me, your oh wow look how horrible things just got, your oh wow you're not going to believe this about me, its old. its beaten. its over. just fucking live. just be. and be (happy) about that. it's simple.
sorry. I just had to get that off my chest.
that was like chicken soup for the soul for realists
soo reading this again.. like i always do.. it looks like i'm complaining to my friends who post on livejournal.. and i'm not talking about livejournal use.. i'm talking about everydayness.
