I was thinking just a while back in the comfort room about how it was in the past. How the happiness I have now is so different from the happiness I had before. I think the main difference between the two is that I used to have that innocent kind of happiness like I wouldn't care what the world thought about me, the only thing that would matter is that I knew I was happy. This is relevant to why I am suddenly writing this because reflecting on what I just typed, the happiness I have now is more short term and in bits and pieces (Bits and pieces meaning that it's not all throughout the whole day, just at times). With that, it seems that somehow I lost myself and (I know you're not supposed to blame anyone but yourself) I blame the vice-intake I have suddenly developed. It's as if now, the times that I believe I am having the most fun is getting overly-intoxicated with friends making the times we're not drinking together sort of unmemorable/irrelevant. This entry might be a little vague because I am realizing all of this right now as I type this down. I just want to have a reminder that I did realize that I would rather have the good old times rather than this new age because I was closer to my friends back then and I actually took more time listening to them before than now.
Saying all of that, I now have to write my resolution to it. I, Francisco Salazar, will try to talk more to my friends and know what's going on with the person's life. Hopefully, I also get to help that friend with problems of theirs though sharing my insights because I have a lot of those. I won't promise this because I am afraid that I might break it but hopefully, I pull through and open my heart to these people (friends, acquaintances or about-to-be-friends) because I believe the heart holds all the answers. I am not saying that the drinking will stop, by all means no way, rather, not to get too drunk to even have an intelligent and meaningful conversation with someone. Stating that, I believe that communication is one of the most important parts in people's relationships.
For the record, I'd like to state that this is a realization I had just a few minutes ago (which I had to type down) because of sitting in the crapper and listening to my 2nd year sort of Emo songs. Thank you songs. Also, I may not have many friends in this journal thing so that my word might not be spread, but I hope that more people would start having more meaningful conversations and for them to realize that it would fulfill them because it would mean connecting with that person in a deeper level.
