Have you ever had one of those nights where you know you should be sleeping because you've got a big day at work or school the following morning, but as hard as you try, your mind just won't shut off? I mean, how is one expected to fall asleep where there's so much going on up there? Tis litterly an impossible task, let me assure you.
A lot of things have happened lately that gave me so many different reasons to cry. But this evening I also realized I still have so much to be thankful for. I was blessed with a big heart. A kind hand. Great friends. I have a roof over my head. Food on the table. A job that could be so much worse. I have it much better off then some people out there, and I know this.
Things could be so much worse, no? And I guess it took me a while to realize that. I haven't any reason to mope about. To cry or feel degraded. I shouldn't hate my life or my failures. I've accomplished so much. I've made my dream come true already. And to me, that is enough to be proud about.
There's no point fretting over the small things, when the big picture is perfect. Only those whom go looking for the minor details that are messed up are those whom are simply looking for a better way to cope with their own failures.
And even though I have no free time. No family that I'm close with. And no money for college, it's those out there that have no hopes that I feel sorry for.
We're put on this world to live through it, and I have every intention of doing just that. They'll be plenty of time to worry about things later on in life when I've done all I ever wanted to do. For now, though, I think I'd much rather live life, then degrade it.
Anyway, it's after one and I've got to be up in five hours for a full days work and then an hour worth of American Sign Language class, so I think I'll try my hand at sleeping again.
Lesson of the Day: Sometimes it seems like everything in life is going wrong. Like none of your wishes come true. And, yes, sometimes it doesn't seem worth it all. But always, always it could be worse. So long as your here, and your alive, then theres hope. A better future starts with you. And if you believe that it can happen, then it will. Just give it time. Miricles work when you least expect it.
