Desires

A wise woman once told me that the key to contentment in life is to stoping wanting. The more you want the more you are frustrated when you can't have what you want. After all, the old adage 'You can't have everything' applies to me as much as the next guy. In other words, one of the lynchpins of happiness is to desire only what you can realisitically have.

THEN WHY THE HELL DO I STLL WANT THE IMPOSSIBLE? Why do I covet what can never be mine?

Oh I know! I can blame my family for imposing utterly unreasonable expectations on me. and believe me this particular expecation was WAY unreasonable from the start. I'm not the only one whose's heartbroken over this.

I can blame facebook for messing up a very important aspect of my life (that I can keep my different worlds seperate). Today two parts of my life came crashing together in a most undesirable way. After today my life will never be the same again. I hope the one who caused it is very, very, very happy. But I forgive her, she does not yet realize the harm she caused.

I can also blame myself, because of late I've been very, very frustrated...

But It's alright, It's OK. I'm so much better _______ ___ :D
