Here's another long script of words & bullshit for you to read which may or may not tease your mind & all its endeavors:
Life sucks. Let's stop pretending it doesn't. The chaos, the evil (upmost specifically, that bigot of a "man" holding office & everything surrounding his very existence). The world is a tough place, It has no mercy. Each & every human being has a path in this thing we call life - and with paths, come its bumps.
But here's the thing. Every so often, come those days that withhold the exact opposite - that make everything seem simple and worth all the pain.
I'm having one of those days. Specifically, driving down a peculiarly empty road on my way to another coffee shop to empty my mind into endless school work... Listening to one of those songs that halts your fast-tracked mind & eases you into an abyss of tranquility (Uncast Shadow Of A Southern Myth - Parquet Court, for those interested). Then, instantaneously, all your surroundings are saturated with beauty. You begin to ponder all that you've done with your life, both pleasant and regretful. All the people you've met, the places you've been, and the memories you've captured. And this is when it happens - when suddenly everything offers value.
Because here's the catch, in this exact moment, no matter what situation you may be in - you're here, as the person you are, because of your history. Your faulty decisions, your mistakes, your hardships. This isn't something to regret or pity, this is something to be proud of. You may not be able to control your fate, but you sure as hell can control how you handle it.
So here is my reminder: Sometimes things may look awful bleak - both personally & universally. But no matter the situation, life goes on. And you're in complete control. Think of it like this - every individual has their own story, and you're the author. Every start of a new day, a clean page is before you. And If that isn't the most satisfying thing, I don't know what is.
