It's my pity party, and I'll cry if I want to

yesterday a friends facebook status said "Je suis fatigué de penser ...très" which translates to "I am tired of thinking ... very" and i think this perfectly describes how i feel today. i am tired of thinking about what the future holds, what i could have done differently, why certain people dont like me, why i cant like the ones that do, whether i should move, change jobs, will i ever have a family of my own, will i be happy if i dont, why do some people just plain suck, why do some people have so much drama, how do you end a friendship that no longer works for you...thats just some of the things i think about and i know that everyone has things and some have way more complicated things to worry about but as the title says its MY pity party ;)

The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be Marcel Pagnol

i know i need to just let go and let life happen but sometimes i find that hard to do especially when things aren't going the way i want and i dont see a change in sight. i find it so much easier to help other people with their problems, even while writing this i feel like i should just suck it up and get over it. so many people have it worse than i do but i should be allowed to wallow in self pity for a day right? most days i try to appreciate everything that i have and find the positive in things...

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Epicurus

thanks for letting me ramble about my silly problems, i feel better already:)

maybe we can help each other so feel free to comment with suggestions for me or with your own issues and questions.
