Zen , I don't know about you , but I concentrate way too much on all the things that I think are going to make me feel happy and put joy in my life.
Thinking this way makes me feel worse. It's like a never ending cycle of desiring things that others have that seem appealing to me. Maybe I would be happier with someone to share my life with . I tell myself this is the answer to my lonely boring life , but is it really. I don't know because I am only thinking about it , not actually doing it. The key is to try and be satisfied with what we now have and except that . I've known this for years and still continue the same poor old me routine. There's always going to be someone that seems to have it all , but do we really know how they feel . I bet it is not all joy and happiness . If you really take a look at what you have and try not to compare it to others , you would most likely feel better about YOU Zen.
Life really isn't as bad as it seems . It's just when we want or desire or whatever what others have , that's what makes it tough. For me anyway.
Please take care of yourself Zen , you really are a special person .
Luv, Babysteps
