too much shit going on at once... i though school ending for the break would be this huuuuge release and freedom, but it wasnt.
things i dont want to think about, things i dont want to know about.

tomorow the sun will rise. its just going to be raining thats all.

I don't know how you feel but at the same time I do. Pressure. We should go for a walk and forget about everything. You also have my number.

if you stress out over what's going wrong, you'll only slip deeper and deeper into frustration/depression.

Concentrate on the future, and have confidence in your ability to improve your situation and you'll feel alot better...

trust me... I'm a sales manager... the same theory, when I *NEED* money, and try to make money(I work 100% commissions) I dig myself deeper and deeper into trouble... however, when I go to work with the attitude that I don't give a shit, and have confidence that I'll achieve my goals, I always surpass them.

alas this would solve alot of problems if the issues at hand were just about money, work, school. but unfortunately they are not.
im only just beginning to grasp the fact that i do need to deal with what is going on, i do need to think about it. life needs to be dealt with, not shrugged off. but saying this and doing it are two different things.
like i said, materialistic sorrows dont get me down, however, life altering issues do.
what if you cant alter the future? what if your loosing something, and you have no way of preventing it? what if you cant change something that happened, and it is going to affect you until you deal with it?

If it's personal shit like a past relationship went sour or a failed opportunity or something that's frustrating you... you just have to realize it's not the end of the world, and once you stop mulling over past failures, you can get on with future successes.

if only it was.
i havent mulled over a past relationship in over 2 years, nor have i mulled over any other past failures, i live in the moment.

im talking about life and death, which in fact has pushed me more towards living for today. i dont want to live for "5 years down the road" today seems much more interesting.

anyways, its not a petty problem like your assuming, like i said, its about death.

there is nothing you can do, you can only learn to cope with it.

and if you do not deal with it, it is only going to compile and compile and continue to get worse.

it is easier though to push things out of your mind, and sorta forget like they are going to happen. but they are going to. and the sooner you deal with it, the sooner you can begin to heal.

i understand where you are coming from mugsy, this seasons reminds me of death myself.

best of luck.

to add to frustration:
people who dont understand things because they have never experienced it. they think that they know but they really really really dont and are misinformed in many aspects.

secondly, im having coffee with my brothers ex-girlfriend... and i feel bad, but he lied to me about their breaking up situation. but hey i can have whomever i want for friends.

thirdly, i want to go for a run but its pissing rain outside. i definately got up on the wrong side of the bed today. it will alllllllllll feel better in an hour or two.
