Drained...
For a while now things are just becoming more and more exhausting. Not just physically but more on the emotional, mental side of it all. I feel often that anything or anytime I need to make some manner of change in life. It is met with resistance from others. I have never been one to tell anyone no when they bring up something they feel they should or need to do. If it will make them happy or feel better about themselves. But when I do it and I need to do something to make myself feel like what I do has a reason or purpose it is usually met with, "let's wait until..." If you have anyone in your life who is ever not themselves, feeling like they are not happy. And they ever say anything about wanting to make a change, you let them do it. Do not give excuses why they should not. This person is usually feeling alone and secluded from life. And any attempt made to reverse that feeling needs to be encouraged and not stomped on until it suits someone else's needs. I have for now been looking into getting into a truck as it would for me help suit my needs more than my current vehicle and I keep getting met with reasons why I should not do it. Things in the world right now are tough and almost getting worse for all people. If there is anything that someone can do to distract from or take away that pain for fuck's sake let them do it. For some people all they have in life if their dreams and desires and if they can somehow make a small part of them come to reality then don't stop them help them make it happen....
Some may say I am a bit on the fence with this one. As I see 2 sides of a coin.
ReplyDeleteLife is hard for many people, and sadly predicts to get harder. Do you not think that a one off purchase is a short lived solution, in no time at all after the initial buzz you will be back to feeling how you did beforehand. Maybe the short term gain is worth it. We all need a buzz out of life on occasion.
It that many years ago, whenever I felt there was something missing or out of sorts I would splurge. Now I pay the price. And life is 10 times harder. Especially when you have to resign yourself to the fact you can’t react the same to things. Practicing self restraint is very hard and frustrating. I hope one day it pays off .
Whenever I start to feel pissed or sad I remind myself, in life while there are many people in front of me, there are also many behind me much worse off. I then try to ground myself and appreciate what is around me.
Can’t say it always works…
