Last night I was up all night thinking. This happens to me from time to time and it sucks. These are the moments when I question everything.
One of the main thoughts was about appreciation. Sometimes it sucks to constantly hear how great and fantastic someone else is. Even if I agree with the assessment, I don't really want to hear it all the time. I really don't want to hear how great someone I have never met is. It makes me uncomfortable. How great are they really if I can't even meet them. I think it is important to take some time to appreciate how great the person right in front of you really is. People like being appreciated so take a little time to appreciate those around you.
Another thought was one about just deciding to be happy. Seems simple but it isn't always that easy. When someone is going through a rough time it is difficult to flip that switch. Sometimes you just need to feel what you need to feel. There is nothing wrong with it. Feel it and let it go. Aside from that, no one can tell you what happy is. Feelings are subjective and are different for everyone. Sure things could be worse but they could be better too. Just remember that everyone feels things and is affected by things differently. That is what makes us unique, don't screw that up by trying to make everyone feel the way you do.
There were other thoughts that went through my mind but they get even deeper than I really want to revisit.

I completely understand. Damn busted switches and people always talking up about people you never meet when you just wish for them to say that about you and not hear oh well thats great you told someone else that about me but how come I dont feel from you or hear you tell me these things and I have to feel like im not good enough when someone else is obviously so great by comparison. I am no ones infieror DONT MAKE ME FEEL LIKE THAT. Of course not directed towards you but you clearly can see why one would feel that way. Yeah you and me my dear need more positive comments sent our ways at times. so YOU ARE A WONDERFUL WOMAN and I really like being your friend *hug* .
