This isn’t gonna be one of my normal writings with five paragraphs and a topic. I’m just gonna write out loose thoughts and ideas and maybe find one that I elaborate on later.
Well the end of the year is here and for me it’s tomorrow It’s currently saturday December 31st for me so tomorrow is the first day of 2017. And the first thing I wanna touch on is. New Year’s resolutions. To be honest I don’t understand this tradition and in all honesty if you need one day for you to decide to do something then. It’s probably not gonna last. I wanna legitimately ask why you need a day to do what it is you wanna do? Why can’t you do it on any other day? There’s no answer to the second question. You can! But you just won’t break the shackles of procrastination. And there’s a quote by the billionaire Warren Buffet “Chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are to heavy to be broken”. What this means is, your procrastination at the beginning (or bad habit) you don’t notice it, and then slowly it gets worse and worse, until at one point it’s insanely hard to get out of the habit. And all of the rich people are very active people they use their time all day. They don’t procrastinate and the quicker you can learn to not procrastinate. The quicker you’ll live a better life. You don’t need one day to make you do something, you need will to make you do something. Break the chains before they can’t be broken.
Now I wanna talk about time. After my first writing I still looked into it of course I don’t write something and stop learning about it. If I went back to update some of my writings I could add half a paragraph of stuff to each of them. Anyways, everyone says you don’t have enough time. And this again ties into the new year's thing. The people that say this like everyone are the people who’s in the chains that are to heavy to be broken. We do have enough time, we just waste so much of it at the end we look back and see that we didn’t do anything with the precious time we were given. If you think you’re not lucky, think about this, you are one of the most lucky people if you were born healthy and with a good mind. You already have the skills to do anything you want in life after that. Like you can literally do anything within a human’s ability no matter how much you flail your arms you’re not gonna take off flying. But as stated in the first writing I did (New things). You can do anything you want and you should do something new it’s good for both your mental and physical health unless you do drugs so don’t do that.
What else?.. Oh yea, lemme actually talk a little about the year. I hope you guys had a sick af year and hope it was amazing. Mine was full of problems but I made it through and hope that 2017 will be awesome. And I hope you guys also do something great with your new year and be productive! Make it better than this year and do something new and fun!
I had so many things in my head to write and then when I sat down, boom all gone lol. But I did wanna write this. And I’ll actually probably add to it as time goes on for the rest of this year I guess haha.
And right before I go to sleep to start the beginning of the last day. Lemme write about this… Love. Love is a powerful thing. It can be beautiful and it can be deadly… I always thought of it as this. “Love is like a flame, it starts out very bright, it flickers at moments, it shines brighter if you do something, and it always will go out”. That is what I have always thought about it. And in the end I can’t say I’m wrong yet from these 14 years I haven’t found anything to disprove it. But I have a very long way to go. We’ll see if my theory holds up. But yes love can be very beautiful and amazing, one of the greatest feelings of your life. I’m speaking from what I’ve seen of course I’m too young to have experienced true love except for my cards of course! But love is still a very very powerful and what’s the word I’m looking for?.. Ah, intense emotion. It is one of the emotion that can easily be manipulated and it can control you just like anger. It can make you do things not in your will, so if you’re reading this far or even reading this I warn you, make sure your heart is balanced by your brain, if unbalanced. You will do things you don’t mean to do… I would think of anger as the brain, and love from the heart. And there is other emotions from each side of course, but those are unbalanced differently. Just make sure you don’t let your rage or love make you do things you don’t wish to do. Love again is beautiful, and painful. You must know how to balance everything like yin yang lol. But that’s the paragraph before I’m about to pass out I’m gonna sleep and hope you have a good new years!
And the last thing I will speak about in this random writing is… The good ol’ fake smile. A smile that isn’t caused by happiness but is used as a mask to hide anger, sadness, or other emotions. And I’ve been discovering this fake smile since this summer. And it’s definitely a powerful tool. Even I use one basically everyday. But what I’ve found from it is that, it poisons you slowly just going deeper and deeper. To the point where you can’t control your fake smile, it just happens. A fake smile is just a facade to hide true feelings and as you’ve learned bottling up emotions is in no way good for you. The depression or rage that you are hiding is slowly eating away at your heart and soul behind the mask you’ve chosen to wear. Again “the chains of habit are too weak to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken”, this fake smile just poisons and takes years slowly from you. You should face your emotions and gain steady control of them. Or they will control you. It’s like a sword, “A sword is meant to be swung, if it swings you it is no longer yours”. So face your problems head on or else they only get worse and worse, but if you face it you’ll gain experience of how to in the future and you will have jumped another obstacle in your life.
And with that I end this writing thanks for reading my thoughts and have an amazing new year good luck.
