Someone can be living 5 minutes away from you, maybe even 2, but their life is entirely different to yours, and in no way linked by anything other than the scene both your lives are set in. It's like we all have our own private space in a completely shared environment. We are all in the same place in time, the same planet, same country town or road, and some even in the same house. If some people can make their lives amazing, there is no reason why we all can't have a go!
I just sudenly found it odd, almost frightneing when i realised it. Because sometimes you find people you aspire to be like, and think you're not because your lives are different, but that difference is only about you and what you've made of your experience. I know i have a few people I genuinely aspire to be like because i admire their outlook on life. But I always think, well personality is fixed, and our lives are different, so i will never be like that. However, quite often, the setting is more or less the same. Sure there are different incidents, but usually they can spring parallel to things in others lives, it just comes down to how people deal with them differently, not because their lives are different, but because they are different. Most of the inspiring people I know are inspiring because of the way they have delt with horrible situations in a remarkable way. Of corse everyone knows that people do things differently, and say it all the time. "oh, thats just how I deal with stuff like that" or "everyone deals with things in their own way". But what people forget is that it can be a choice. Just because you used one method 20 times before, it doesn't mean that you have to use it again next tiume. You can break the chain just by simply asking yourself how well did it work before? Most of us have serval coping mechanisms that are not exactly healthy, i'm sure. Or perhaps a particular mindset towards things etc. If it's not how you aspire to be, then you CAN just change it with a few simple realisations, self awareness and a bit of motivation.
So i'm going to be a bit different from now on i think. I hope. I'm going to be what I aspire to. And i'm going to make it work because I am all I need to make it work. Everything else is ready and waiting; it has been the whole time. Just waiting for me to make this realisation. So yeah. I want to be way more creative, and a lighter personality, more funloving and aspirational. And i want a bit more confidence and to let my humour out a bit more (not to be confused with creepy humour, i will keep that locked up, that isn't exactly light personality material :p)
And now back to my miserable revision, but hopefully with a somewhat less miserable me :)
Peace out! (Y)
