When anxious, uneasy and bad thoughts come, I go to the sea, and the sea drowns them out with its great wide sounds, cleanses me with its noise and imposes a rhythm upon everything in me that is bewildered and confused. -Rainer Maria Rilke

Truth of things
What does this life hold for us? I realized something last night. I said "I'm a single...Nothing is going to happen to me until I get married." Just thinking back on that single thought...I realized how stupid that is. I have a purpose right now. I don't need to have a family to feel useful or to have a purpose. I need to start now. I need to keep myself busy and do things that are productive. No wonder I'm bored all the time. I never do anything productive or useful. And yes I need to feel useful and not lazy. I'm tired of feeling like I'm in a rut or that I have nothing to look forward to. My life isn't as bad as I make it sound. In fact I am pretty blessed in my life. I have a family that loves me and supports me and friends who are awesome. What do I really have to complain about? Nothing. Anything that goes wrong in my life is my own fault. What ever consequences that happen to me is because I did it. Not someone else. I can't blame people for my mistakes. Its about time I listened to those around me who have more experience and knowledge. Why flounder with something when I have someone I trust throwing me the lifeline to help. How foolish to waste all that energy fighting against the truth. The reality is that what exists, exists. No matter how much I want it to be different or change isn't going to make the truth go away. I can't ignore the truth when its staring me in the face. To ignore the truth of how things are is stupid. I just need to except the truth and then move forward. Think of the solution. Not the problem. If I focus so much on the problem then I will never find the answer I need.
