So long do human beings search for all these good things in life but often find themselves in the dark.
However, we are quick to blame everyone else, besides ourselves.... really we should blame ourselves because we are in control of our life.
There may be influences from the outside, but we make the initial decision.
I found this not by a search on Google, but by observation of those around me, and by personal experience(s).
We have the power, you just need to have the will to let things go, and the ability to forgive, and not hate. We hold grudges and tie ourselves to many things and are afraid to let go and stop trying so hard. I am not saying that we stop trying all together, but some times things are out of our control.
For example, so long did I want someone to love me and I eventually took any type of attention I could get, and stopped caring and it took one person to not give up on me. One returning call on a day in November is all it took, to open the box in which I had locked away for a long time. I stopped trying to force a relationship to work out, and finally just when I did, a light came into my life again. I know this is corny, but it really took a big toll on my life, because not only has our friendship from earlier years maintained itself. He has become not just a significant other, but a best friend.
There are days that may seem dark, and depressing but everyone has those days, even the happiest of people. My point of sharing this was that even the "smallest" decisions and actions can help become the person you want to be.
It's not a lie when people say don't give up, or don't stop trying, you just have to choose which things we need to and want to, and from there decide.
I know a lot of this probably does not make sense but that is mainly because this is exactly how my brain functions, a bunch of thoughts and situations combining at once, so for those of you who have stuck with me this far I am almost done. I also have conversations like this which makes it hard for people to talk to me, so I just wanted to end this by saying thank you for taking the time to read a important part of my life, that has happened to me. I hold things like these moments very dear to me.
