personally, my life has been pretty good. i have had some hard things, but nothing compared to the stories of others. my problems mostly stem from things that could have been avoided-- an ex-boyfriend who i am still in love with because i won't let him go, a test i failed because i didn't study enough, a job i didn't get because i didn't take the time to write a good cover letter, friends who aren't any more because i don't put the effort in the relationship. family members have passed away, but that's part of the circle of life, and if i'm here, they did their job. i am sad they are gone, and i'll always wish i had more time to talk, to laugh, to grow, but i don't, and really, i need to be thankful for the time i had. it sucks when someone dies, but life must go on- eventually anyhow.
lately, i've been doing well. school is shaping up, and i am finally getting a hold of the things that matter in life, the relationships, the attributes. yes, i'd really love an iphone, but if i don't get one, it's not a huge deal. i have a cell phone that works, that functions, and more importantly, i live in a society where i can use it. i can pay the bills and get the reception i need (which is good considering they took out all of the pay phones), but the point is, that i am usually so caught up in my day to day life, i don't stop to think about how good i really have it, how my problems are miniscule compared to other peoples.
it works out, eventually. pray. eat. sleep. pray.
