I think

Wednesday, February 23, 2011

that it is very hard to be satisfied with what you have today. I can't just be happy, be satisfied, be complete with what I have. 

Life isn't about 100% perfection. As I said to a friend while looking at skin products - "Perfection is Unrealistic".

Unrealistic.

The grass isn't always greener - it's just always there. Realizing that your grass might have some brown spots but it's ok anyway is the hard part.

My grass has some brown spots. I'm trying to be ok with that. And accept that I can be happy - or mostly happy - where I am and not always have be looking for something different. Different isn't guaranteed to be better, again, it's just different. Who know what that will mean?

I like being a little lazy. I like not having to be stressed about something all the time. I LOVE the fact that when I get off at 5:30pm I don't care what the hell is happening at my office. 

Is that bad? I don't know. Can I change that? Doubtful. Do I want to change that? Even more doubtful.

I don't know if my hobbies, my passions, will ever be something I do 24/7. If they'll be things that take up my every waking moment. All I know is that right now things don't suck. And I'm ok with that. I just need to remember to remind myself that it's ok that I'm ok.

Just because I'm type-A doesn't mean I have to be type-always looking. I can be happy. I can be satisfied.

I think.

(Excuse the random alcohol-life-stress-self doubt imposed ramblings. They happen. Hopefully some it makes sense, lol, but I make no guarantees.)

You were drunk? How did this happen and was I there? I hope I was drunk cause then it was fun for both us. Until you posted this and then it was not so great. STOP THINKING - it's good advice. I usually don't follow it but that doesn't mean it's not good. I <3 u

I don't think I was drunk during any part of this moment unfortunately. Maybe next time!
