The Simple Things in Life
It's interesting how life got alittle simpler and easier to deal with once I got rid of alot of the drama. A good portion of that drama centered around emotional relationship baggage -- baggage that I once thought so important that it ate at me every moment I had time to myself to think about it. And I think that's because I blamed myself alot for the downfall of the relationship. It took a good amount of time for me to realize that I can't work every failed relationship out. Cuz no matter what, it takes two. And if someone isn't willing or able to meet halfway, then it's pointless for me to think I can do it on my own for the two of us.
So I said "screw it" and let time lessen the emotional rollercoaster as I came to terms with it. Now it's more of a dull emotional throb. Hasn't completely gone away, it lingers around in the background at times, but it no longer keeps me awake at nights. And that's the important thing.
I also simplified my life by focusing more on the things that I've always enjoyed no matter how my day went. That's my climbing, my volleyball, my real friends, and my love for food ;-). Man, do I love to eat lol. And these few things accounted for the majority of my emotional time. Noticed I didn't just say time. That's because I didn't include things which don't exude some sense of passion from me, basically which don't really matter to me in the long run. Few things really matter in the end, right? So focus on those few. Nothing is considered petty if it makes you feel good.
So I have by no means resolved all my life's issues. But I am currently living a life that is moving in a positive direction. One simple step at a time.
