In The Nervous Light Of Sunday
Well I haven’t seem to of blogged since May, so I figured why not blog now?
Let me provide you with a vague scenario with which you can somehow relate to your own life:
You are happy, something negative happens to you, you are no longer happy or content. You may even get very upset.
Vague enough? Good!
I too obviously have these kinds of things happen to me, and of course my good friends - hell, even my enemies. It happens to us all. It’s called drama, er…life.
Why do we let it effect us though? Why do we let ourselves get hurt? I honestly do not know why anymore. I may only be sixteen, but sometimes, you need the mind of a thirty year old - even for dealing with pain. Let me explain.
we’ve all got our good days and our bad days, we just have to look at it in a different light. For example, I very recently took up a new way of looking at pain and hurt feelings. I don’t look at it in the ‘here and now’ state of mind, I see it as if I was thirty and looking back on this drama and laughing at how extreme I acted. It could hurt me in the ‘here and now’, but it will never hurt me in 14 years. With that sort of disconnection from my negative reality, it’s helped me block out things that would get under my skin now. I don’t consider it avoidance, but just an altered view of reality.
I know this won’t work for everyone, but for me at least, it is doing a fine job.
Short and sweet for now. I could go on and on, but I’ll leave it at that.
I’ll promise to keep blogging!
