elementary, my dear watson!

There are two types of problems;
1. mine
2. everyone else's

Mine don't outrank yours and yours don't outrank mine, this isn't a competition... Life is what it is. You can't change the past and you can only escape from the present for so long. It all catches up to you eventually. That being said, I have discovered that seeing things simply is the easiest way to cope with life. You can't control what other people do or what life throws at you, that just isn't going to happen. Sure, you fucking wish you could. Everybody does. For example, let's just say your ex is making you miserable because he started fucking a new girl like two weeks after he moved out of your life and you found out about it through his mom's fbook page. [like how I got all detail oriented there? yeah, no, that didn't really happen...] So yeah, that sucks right?

Do you wish you could convince him of the badness of that idea?
Yup.
Do you wish he would just take you back and stop being a douchebag about it?
Yup.
Is crying about it and blowing up his phone 24/7 going to alter these facts?
Nope, not at all.

I mean, he's a grown ass man [sorta] he's going to do what he wants. Once you reach the age of puberty you pretty much stop listening to what people tell you to do anyway. Trying to control another person is like trying to control the weather. Sure, it's possible and works some of the time, but it always ends up totally fucked. Then you end up with Global Warming and acid rain. You get birds flying into shit or in the wrong direction then it starts raining meatballs. [think: Cloudy w/a Chance of Meatballs, the book not the lame ass movie.]

Relationships just aren't meant to work that way. And I mean any relationship when I say that. Friendships, romantic relationships, parent-child relationships... etc. etc. Relationships of any kind require two people in a semi-equal partnership. A ying to your yang, so to speak. For life to work, there has to be balance. You can't have good without bad, can't have light without dark, can't have happy without sad... Two people should balance each other in the same way. Say you suck at math but are great in English and your girlfriend sucks at English but rocks at math. You compensate for the others weaknesses. As a parent, you protect your kid and teach them what you can so that when they go out into the big scary world [you hope] they are not completely bamboozled by what is going on around them. And as a child you learn about new technologies and show your dad how to text message until eventually you have to return the favor and take care of them in their old age. Again. BALANCE. I cannot stress this enough;

IN ALL THINGS THERE MUST BE BALANCE.

Want to stop hating life? Prioritize. Weigh things. If one thing tips the scales too much in one direction, fix it. 

Easy.

Fuckin'.

Peasy.

*Note: And I'm a fucking diagnosed crazy person and even I get this. So you, normal, semi-functioning adults out there should have no problem understanding this.

Just a little rant to get your noggin' juices flowin'.

a'bientot.

accept it, deal with it, learn from it, and move the fuck on.

THE END.

Note: I must give credit where credit is due... my dad taught me a lot of the shit I just rambled about.Or at least planted the ideas, I kind of took some of it and ran with it.
