As i wake up, to a splitting headache, I realized life truly is, "not that great". Every time i push myself, I fall, and once I stand back up, I run into the wall. Why oh why must life be hard.
I don't see the purpose in most cliche things, roses for valentines, or candles for birthdays, why oh why do we even celebrate? Maybe it's the gift of life we all try to share, the smiles and expressions floating around the air. Maybe, it's the dream of prosperity, or knowing that someone, truly cares. This may be for most, but not for me, I do not believe in prosperity. We are all doomed to our own fate, 6 feet under we count our mistakes. "We shall rise from the earth and play a holy tune", only believed by the chimps and baboons.
Perhaps I'm wrong but I haven't been proven that yet, or maybe I have and I can't grasp it. I'm probably wrong I typically am, Its just one of those days I guess, where I just don't understand
