If you're never satisfied then alleviate the sense of longing.
How many feelings are just temporary, impermanent and fleeting?
The problem is that we rarely recognize our own self-worth, or at least thats the truth for me. So much of my life was spent worrying about how others perceive me. I'm not saying I don't care what others think, quite to the contrary but I still feel you have to draw the line somewhere. Maybe we have so many issues about self-worth or our own inadequacies. I'm not going to pour my heart out just to have it thrown back in my face. We're all good people, we just tend to forget that sometimes. We spend way too much time thinking about "what we can get out" of a situation rather than the people directly affected by it. Everyone is human, no one is perfect but that doesn't mean we should just sit there and except the fucked up aspects of social living. So the next time I hear someone called a fag or a bitch in my presence i'm going to call them on it. The shit that some people spout out is no different then the rhetoric of any notorious fascist or racist.
So many people criticize personal decisions, things I see as respectable acts of selflessness. Last time I checked conviction had nothing to do with age nor did it have do with a lack of maturity. When did things become so fucked up, that it became socially acceptable for us to devalue the people that should be the most important part of our lives. So fuck devoting my life to excess, and I'd rather spend my time thinking of ways that I could lessen the harm. I refuse to let substance control my life, not because of some fucking slogan but rather because personally know of the hardship that vice creates. If I ever have a family there won't be that baggage that I associate with the two previous generations. And fuck preconceived notions about beauty and sex. I agree that attraction is important, in respect to relationships but that doesn't mean that I think that subjugation of women isn't fucked up. I honestly don't want to support it, I don't want to be the ignorant asshole who looks at people as a means to my own end.
I'm tired of being in the same situations, seeing familiar faces and acting as if there is no connection. I don't embrace these conceptions of separation, that this internet age is keeping people apart. If I know you, I'll talk to you. If you've always been there for me then I'll be there for you. I won't give condolences to a loss, i won't cop out with i'm sorry. I'll be there and I know things have been hard, sometimes I lose sight of what really matters. When i'm on my deathbed I don't want to think about all the people I didn't talk to. I'm really sorry that things got so fucked up, I let my anger get the best of me. It comes with the territory, sometimes your absence comes off as my greatest personal failure.
