The waiting game

Waiting around is not a very fun thing. Most of us are impatient and want things to happen right now we don't want to wait around for goods things to happen. We want the latest and greatest things now we don't want wait around for it. We always want the next best thing we are never satisfied with what we have and we are not patient enough to see if things will get better. We give in way too easily.

Lately I have realized that have been impatient that I want something great to happen in my life. I don't want to wait around for something good to happen I want it to happen now. I am always looking for the next great thing in life. However it has come to my attention that I need to stop thinking about wanting something great to happen in my life. I need to just slow down and enjoy the life that is going on around me. I keep waiting on something to happen to me but why I am doing this? I do not even know what I am waiting. This semester has been rough and I guess I keep thinking well eventually something good will happen. So what do I do I wait around for that good thing to happen and when time has passed and nothing good happens I get frustrated and do not understand why something good has happen.

However, it occurred to me the other day good things are happening to me but I am waiting for that one really great thing to happen to me. That one great thing is for something to tell me everything will be okay and things will work out for you. I realized that one thing is never going to happen because it is those little things that I have been missing out on because I have been so concentrated on that one big great thing that will tell me everything will be okay. I have realized that life is not about the big things that happen in your life but they are the thing little things that are happening while you are busy living life that tell you hey everything will be okay. I need to concentrate on those times in my life and just keep my head up. These things are definitely easier said then done because I am human and we are wanting more, wanting something better. My question is why?

Why are we always so concentrated on the next thing in life? We have so many great things going on in our life right now that we are missing out on because we want the next part of our life to start. So slow down and look at the little things in your life, the things that you do not think really matter. Maybe it is a text message that someone sent or maybe it is just something that you see everyday but do not fully realize how amazing it is. So stop waiting for the next great thing to happen in you life and live for the now because the now can be pretty great too.

Realizations

Do you ever just sit around and think about things? Does something in your life ever make you just stop and make you look at your life? Have you ever realized that you have not been who you wanted to be after something big happens? I have been thinking a lot lately about my life and where it is going and who I am becoming. It is hard to believe that this semester is almost over. It has definitely been one of the hardest semesters I have ever been through. I know after all is said is done it will benefit me in some way. School has been really hard which has lead to me being very stressed. Now I know that being stressed is never a good thing but I think in my case sometimes it has helped me. Anyways being stressed is not what I want to talk about. However the stress in my live has made me stop and rethink my life. My mind lately has been full of different things.

I am almost finished with my first semester of my sophomore year. It's exciting and scary to think about this because well I am scared to grow up. I only have two and a half years left of college and to me that is crazy. It scares the crap out of me because I will soon have to go out into the real world and get a real job and try and make something of myself. This is a scary fact. I am excited to be done with school don't get me wrong but I don't know if I am ready for the responsibilities that come with it.

This is where my mind has been lately. I have been examining my life and looking to see where I need to improve in my life. Lately I have realized how stupid I have been and how much more growing up I have to do. I have been a very selfish person lately. I have only cared about myself. I have put other second and have cared more about my grades and my classes and what I can do to help myself. I know that this is very stupid of me but while I was doing it I had no idea. Now looking back on I regret it. Now I am not saying that I don't care about my grades because I do. I just realize that some of the choices that I have made lately have not been the greatest and I need to change and figure out a way to realize what I am doing so I can stop myself from doing those things. Lately my mind has been filled with hundreds of different things but it mostly has to deal with where is my life going and am I being the person that I truly want to be.

Your Life

Do you ever wonder what other people think about your life? Do think that that they look at you and say I wish I had their life even when they don't even know you? Wouldn't that be so cool to be like I want their life even when the person doesn't know you? It would be like you were a celebrity. I sometimes wonder what people think about my life. Do they look at me and are like she leads a very boring life and never does anything or do they say I bet she has a very interesting life and I would like to be her friend. I guess over all I wonder what people think about me when they first see me. I know that this is probably wrong and I shouldn't care but I am human and can't help it. So if that makes me a bad person to wonder what people think about me then I guess that I am a bad person but I don't really see myself as a bad person because I am pretty sure everyone at one point in their life has wondered what people think about them. It is a natural thing to happen.

As a human I think we all wonder what people think about us. I think we want to be liked by everyone even if we say we don't care there is a part of us that really does care. Everyone to an extend cares what other people think about them and their lives. I think that sometimes we put on this mask so people don't see our real lives and they see what we want them to see. Why do we do this? Because we care what other people think about us. We have grow up in a culture that has taught us how to judge people and how to look at people's lives and decide from that if we want to be their friends or not. We hardly give anyone a chance that don't live the same lives as us. Now to me that does not seem like such a great thing to do. I believe that we need to step outside our box and meet people who are not just like us or that don't just live life lives like us.

Another thing that I wonder about is do people sometimes keep living their same lives even when they are unhappy. Do you think that they keep living the same lives because they are too scared to take a chance and try something new. I think that people sometimes are unhappy with the way they are living and they are unhappy with their lives but they don't know how to change it not only that but they are also too scared to change their lives because they are afraid of change. So I have a few challenges for you try and step outside of your box meet new people, people that you normally wouldn't talk to and second if you are unhappy with your life try something new don't be afraid nothing bad can come of it. If anything both of these things can have great results.
