Dilemmas

     Bitterness is such a pointless emotion. At times, it doesn't seem possible that I could dislike someone because of all the love that fills my heart for all the amazing people that inhabit my life. But I'll admit it happens on occasion, and it's pointless.. always pointless. I think it's more the fact that I predict situations far beforehand and when they end up happening, saying I told you so just hurts rather than having any feelings of contentment.

     Paradigm shifts don't wait for the stragglers to catch up though do they? The only constant is change. That statement couldn't be any more true. At any rate, bitterness is useless and should be avoided at all costs. I don't like having negative feelings about anything. I see what's going on in other people's lives and it just makes my problems seem so petty and mundane. It definitely puts my predicaments into perspective.
     Keep the things that make you happy close and let the things that make you upset go. Trying to force something where it doesn't belong doesn't end well. Just like a puzzle, there might be pieces that seem like they are so close to fitting, but then we realize that wasn't the proper place for them. We then find out that those pieces fit in different places and the end result is a perfect picture.
     I want to believe there is a place for every single person in the world and that each of them has their own purpose. I want to believe there is some good in everyone, even my enemies. And I'd also like to believe that in a true time of need, I would help anyone that asked, friend or foe. I think I would.. would you?
