"I can tell just what you want. You don't want to be alone."

-Two Door Cinema Club



Oh where to start... I'm not even sure what I feel like writing about. I just know I feel like writing about something. Here are some things I've noticed lately: Everyone wants what they can't have. It's as simple as that. It's a sad fact, but it's a fact without a doubt. I don't know if it's the unsatisfaction from what you already have or just the excitement of something new that people are so attracted to. An eye for an eye.  A tit for tat. You scratch mine and I'll scratch you back. Show me yours and I'll show you mine. That's the thought process of so many people today. Not excluding myself. It's a habit I need to break, I know. Being comfortable is better than being happy. Make sense? I'm not sure either. You would think being happy & comfortable would come together in one big packaged deal. Not necesssarily. A lot of people get into relationships that start off happy but eventually become toxic relationships. However, they stay in these toxic situations because it's comfortable. They're afraid to make a big decision, afraid of change & taking risks. But if you're not happy, why waste your time? Happiness isn't exactly the easiest bug to catch. When you least expect it, it will land right there on your shoulder. But for that to happen you have to be absolutely still and relaxed & wait for it to come to you on it's own time. You can't go chasing it around your yard or it'll fly out into the street and you'll be left there on the curb too scared to venture out of your comfort zone.

All this being said I'm nowhere near perfect. I chase after happiness. I get stuck in my comfort zone. I give what I get--nothing more, nothing less. And at times I want what I can't have. O.K., a lot of the time. Lately I feel like things are getting better, but there is still so much I would change if I could. I wish some people would realize they deserve better. I wish they would see how great they are and that there is someone out there who will appreciate them every second of the day.

F.Y.I.: I have been playing What You Know by Two Door Cinema Club over & over again this whole time I have been writing. It's great. You should take a listen. No body wants to be alone and I believe there is someone for everyone. It's just a matter of finding them. Just don't waste your time searching while everyone else passes you by, don't fold too soon, don't expose your hand, & don't get too cocky.

I won't tell you how this picture relates, I'll just leave this for your own interpretation. <3
