People really forget what it’s like to hit 20+. You are so young, yet you feel old. Really, all kinds of things are new, but most people start to see the same things in their life. A repetitious rat race. They start to feel jaded. I know I did. I remember having crushes in high school. I remember how they meant something different in college. I didn’t get my hopes up as much. It’s like I knew the disappointment was coming. It was probably a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Now, of course, I’m happy. I’m in a relationship, but that was luck. I don’t really get it. It is very obvious to anyone who observes us that she puts up with a lot. I’m constantly reminded that I can be a better person, and I’m glad or it. Ultimately, that’s the best thing you can do for the world. Be a better person, and enjoy the life you have.

When you get older you start to realize things could have been easier this way or that way. When you think about it though. You are a product of your surroundings. If things were easier for you, you would be less capable of surviving the adversities that are always coming at you. I wish more people would enjoy what they have instead of bemoaning what is missing.
