Poetic Justice at its finest.
We neglect something we not yet have but when we lose what was never ours we yearn for it more then if it had belonged to us.
This works on so many levels.
- Property
- Ideas
- Love life
I think the latter is the most horrifying. To realize that for so long you had some chance under your nose then one day it dissipates as if the chance never existed. It's a horrible feeling, but like all others people will get over it. It's just the feeling of injustice to your ego and to your "heart". I for one don't believe in heartbreak. It's just emotion. It passes so quickly that it's pointless to ever get hung up on something. Sure it hurts, but if you're ever in such a situation just take the shallow and perverse way out. Don't bottle up your emotions or anything, just use the situation as more of an opportunity then a period of down trodden mistrust and sadness. Instead, take that time to realize what else is out there and what others you have out there. Now I've given this advice to many before. It's something I picked up in the summer before 8th grade through simplistic observations through Danielle and her horrible boyfriend mishaps. Every time she'd lose a guy, she wouldn't stop for too long and mope because that made her feel weak and lessened her chance of getting a guy in the future. Now the one thing that differed between her and her sister was that when she had this same happening...she wouldn't think logically and figure who she could feel happy with, but instead got desperate. It's easy to not be able to distinguish between these two. I think that in a situation where you experience loss the first thing to do is not to blame yourself but is to look at the person who hurt you and realize the things you didn't need. This is excruciatingly hard, but it's much more cleansing then talking about what you liked oh so much about the person, because that's just self destructive. In my experience the first thing to do is have a lined up rebound...not something sexual but someone who likes you and you need to talk to them and feel better about yourself...this may be using them in a small way...but better to have them help you then to fall worse. This is my simple remedy for when Poetic Justice gets a hold of you, plus it helps when you just lost someone in general.
So anyway. I just called Danielle and talked to her for like all of 20 minutes...then she had to go. I kinda feel like a girl when I call her because she used to call me and complain to me about how bad things were and I used to comfort me and then we would just spend like another three hours just having a conversation, but now when ever I call her she tells me how things are going good for her and then I don't really talk much because I only complain to her when I'm in dire need but she eventually coaxes it out of me and I end up feeling pathetic. Not today though. She just straight up didn't want to talk. I've done it to enough girls to know exactly what to say when you don't want to talk. It's kind of depressing. Oh well.
Damn. Long entry. I feel better now.
