i wish my life was a book...


I wish I knew how it was all going to work out in the end. I wish the hero's cycle was more than just something you see in books and movies. The hero gets a call to action, refuses, takes advice from a mentor who convinces him to do it, crosses the threshhold into the unknown, faces many challenges, eventually falls into a dark abyss, wins, is transformed, and his life is happy-go-lucky forever and ever. the end. Well guess what, my life cant be predicted like that. I may get a call to action, face many challenges, and be transformed in some way, but eventually it always starts over, same story, new issue, different day. And its always something new. one day its a boy. the next day its a crying best friend. then its drama from back home that I REALLY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT, yet everyone insists that I know. Then its me crying, over this or that. When is my life going to become predictable? oh wait, that would be.....Never? I can cry until I make myself physically sick, I can hold it all inside, I can toss and turn all night because of that one thing on my mind. But none of it matters, because tomorrow is still gonna come, and there will be something new to deal with on top of yesterdays unsolved problems. And everyday after that, a new challenge, no matter how big and dramatic, or small and insignificant. Because this is life. But one day, everything will make sense. It wont be tomorrow, and I bet it wont be the day after that. Hell, it might not even be this year. But in the end, everything will be okay. and if everything isnt okay, then obviously we gotta keep going, because it isnt the end. So for today, shed some tears, call your best friend, blast your music and dance and sing your heart out. Just dont let it affect your whole life, because you have to put on that smile, and go to work, and come home, and do your chores, and continue on. Its just a little bump in the road....
