I need to stop wanting everything to be just so.

Things will never be "just so", and I need to learn to live with that.

I am so happy right now and I can't even begin to tell you how complicated everything has been. The fact that I am happy at the same time as everything is complicated is a huge thing. I used to live for simplicity. And I think I even tried to force it on things. Most importantly, I think I tried to force simplicity on things that were going to be complicated no matter what. And now that I have just let those things be complicated, I am happy.

Funny how things like that work.

I think it is also because I have have started (little by little) to let go of the past. I was listening to a song that had been neglected on my iPod for awhile, and although I love this song, there was a line in it that I realized I had been staying too true to:

And you don't wanna be here in the future,
so you say the present's just a pleasent interruption to the past.

I have been letting the past live in (and in some ways take over) my present and future and that has not been a good thing. So I need to let go a little. Not forget, but let it go a little.

Enjoy these wonderful Summer days guys. Fall will be here before you know it.
