Ex's and "Oh"s.
Some things about life suck right now.. some of my friends aren't doing well, and others are doing great. I don't think I'm going to Florida like I said I was going to.. and I'll probably be going to college in Monroe in the fall.
Some parts of my life really scare me. Reality can really cut you deep; but reality keeps you going, too. Keeps you on your toes. It never stops.
Change is a bitch. Change is awesome. Everything in life has it's downside. You can be made or broken with any given event, thought, any moment in time could lift you above the clouds or lie you flat on your face.
I realised the other day that thoughts and emotions are two very different things. Almost a paradox in their similarities, but absolute rivals when it comes to control of the mind. I thought to myself that emotions and thoughts do indeed fight for control, you could know everything about something or someone, but when emotion kicks in all of that is gone. It's just you and your situation.. no facts. No coherence. It's so easy just to look back on a time when your emotions pushed you past your limit, whether it be anger, fright... love.. You can look back and say that in sane mind I would have never said anything like that. But.. I guess it's true that strong emotion and insanity are so indefinitely alike it's scary.
An extremely logical and educated person could be brought to his or her knees when presented with a situation involving a lot of emotion. That's where a difference lies... it's true, there are times you think with your head.. and times you really do think with your heart.
I'm pretty sure people associate love and affection with the heart because of the feeling you get there.. the shortness of breath--a kind of fluttering pulse pattern.
Physical attraction and true affection are both very influencial things. And it can be hard to choose between them. The human mind is an astounding thing...
It's difficult. It really is. And I'm sometimes very very weak.. We can only hope for the best in our lives.. but never expect it. Expectations are just a way of either controlling your life (which is impossible), or letting yourself down.
That's what life's taught me.
