Let's Do It Once, Let's Do It Twice, Let's Do It All Night Until The Sunrise Comes Too Soon.
After i made my that post last night, I went on to write some really sad sounding chord progression and I stopped playing to eves drop on a conversation that was going on in the other room between a friend and the girl he likes (over the phone) it was about 1 AM, something like that.
as a side note, I'd like to add that I think those conversations hold a lot of raw self in them, you can really get to know a person having on of "those" conversations with that person you like, late at night, and all that.
anyway, he said something along the lines of "This sounds weird " - (funny introduction and preemptive "I'm not really this weird if you think this sentence is strange - i also find those quite funny) - "...but, have you ever thought that if your parents didn't have sex right when they did, you wouldn't have been created?"
and I realized through that little snippet of conversation, how lucky I am to even be here. and how many other people could've been born instead of me, but somehow I was, I can't even begin to map out the chances of that baby being me.
So I eventually came to the conclusion that life is not too short, or too meaningful, but just too lucky, too fortuitous for me or anyone to dwell in fits of depression.
And I know that being sad and down and sick of everything in general happens, and I'm not saying that if you ever do get sad that you're stupid for not seeing this or that you should NEVER get sad again, I'll probably have another sad El-Jay post in a month or something,
What I'm saying is:
Life Is Lucky.
I'm going to try this as I think you should too, next time you get so sad you can't stand it (sometimes i like to stay sad, it helps me think) but when you can't stand it any longer.
just think about how lucky you are to be here. how your life was based on chance.
if if that chance worked out in your favor. . . doesn't that mean that the cosmos, the universe, the anything is on our side?
I hope so,
I also hope that you all have a great day.
Thanks Again!,
