Giving in to Complex Simplicity

Hmm...life. As simple as it is complex. As beautiful as it is ugly. As comforting as it is distressing. One must play the cards life has dealt. I have come to understand that. I have also come to understand that certain things we put under a microscope are simply not worth it. So many aspects, concepts and ideas are becoming clear to me. It's like waking up from a century long sleep. Ephihany, anyone?

Overanalyzing and scrutinizing every little thing is impossible and improbable. And yes, sometimes it takes a blow to the ego to wake you up to that. It seems like as many steps as i take forward, I also seem to be going backwards...but as long as I am making progress I won't really worry about it. I won't put it under the microscope. I'm not perfect nor will I ever be, but I can strive to be...human, understanding, compassionate, etc. I have a LONG way to go but slow and steady wins the race, right? And with the right people in my path, that may be a little easier.

I just thank God for everything, the good, bad and indifferent...because they all open my eyes to new and interesting things. I am alive. I have wonderful friends. My family is sane(for the most part) haha. And to top it off, I may just have opened my heart to someone who though I don't feel he deserves it, may just be exactly what the doctor ordered.

Today is here, yesterday is gone, and tomarrow may never ever come. You can ride the wave, or let the tide pull you under. So all we can do is smile, laugh and enjoy what time we have. Love those who love you, ignore those who don't and take comfort in the world's mini-pleasures
