To The People That Just Don't Know

We all are facing something we think is bigger then us

To The People That  Just Don't Know

This is for the people that spend their days just going through the motions. For the ones that agree to whatever people say not because they don't care but because they don't have a opinion of their own about the topic in question. For the ones the spend nights wide awake in anxiety attacks because they see others around them finding what they want from life. This is for the ones that are in a constant state of not knowing.

Trust me I know where you're at because I'm there too. Some days I think, "Okay so this is going to work" and others it's like I'm a Target cashier on black Friday; complete chaos. I guess this typical with senior year starting in a month (how??). Trying to narrow down colleges and finding the one college that is going to allow me to go the farthest with my career interest, which I decided to change within the last year.

This is isn't going to be a rant about my crisis, because I'm not the only one facing something. We all are facing something we think is bigger then us.

Those nights when you stay up until four the next morning because you are just so stressed out everything going on in your life; work, family, friends, future. It's all in your head. Our mind has this thing of playing a dirty tricks on us and makes us believe that everything we see or hear is fifteen times worse then what it actually is. Nothing is ever really as bad as it seems.

So you've out of touch with the people around you lately. Doesn't mean you are going to end up living alone in studio apartment with nine cats to keep you company your whole life. So you feel like your spending your whole life doing the same things day after day. Doesn't mean your life won't change one day.

For most people the live and do the exact same thing, in the same town, for eighteen years and then suddenly they are thrown into a completely different world.

So don't worry your chance is coming, be patient. Enjoy the time you have before it happens because you never know when it's coming. Whether it's tomorrow or a year from now, make sure you aren't wasting your time stressing out over what will happen or when it will happen. Live in the moment and don't take the small things for granted.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."
