life is not that hard.

i keep telling myself that quote, and it doesn't get easier to understand.

i have a lot of people that come to me with their problems. whether or not i help them, that's to be agreed upon by them. i have no control what direction others take in their life based on some assitance that i offered. but...

after going through their view on their issues, i view whatever problems that are occuring as small. that word...small. small problems that just occur due to life being life. i understand, to me...these things will be this way. i try not to worry about small details and uncomfortable issues that won't have an influence on me a week from now.

i understand some have loved ones they can't get to understand their lives.

i understand you have problems trusting a friend when they've hurt you before.

i get that you're hurting on cash and are having problems paying the bills.

but...if it makes it any easier...everyone has these problems. we're supposed to. life isn't supposed to be easy. if it was, we wouldn't have: sympathy, compassion, regret, and most importantly...love.

yeah...love. love...isn't possible unless you have some sort of chaos causing it.

we stay together due to our flaws, not our simliarities. if we continued our life due to what we have in common, they we never get to experience anything new. we love each other for what we DON'T have in common.

so...we all have the same problems. and talking to others may help dealing with whatever your life is in turmoil about. however...when we embrace the fact that life will always be life, and these problems will always be there...then you stop worrying all the time about things.


that's my spin. that's my take. you can dissagree all you like. but it's worked for me for a while now.
