Throwback.

Two years ago I wrote this post. It was liked over 200 times and shared over 50 times on fb. A few weeks later a special person had the end quotes framed for me and gave it to me as a gift.  I stumbled upon it tonight reading old messages.  I think it's still relevant today. What do you think? 

I'm tired of living in a world of immediate gratification and what she/he has is better. A world where people think just because it's not easy it's not worth fighting for. Where we expect things from others but don't give them the same. Where we separate ourselves because of our differences. What if Abraham Lincoln said this just isn't working?We are too different. This world is not easy. Life isn't perfect. It's not about quantity, the expected image of happiness or money. It's about quality and love. We are all different. Isn't that the beauty of being? But we must learn to understand each other. What was once some one night thrill eventually fades. We grow up. We find excitement in different ways: watching your nephews play soccer, being able to let someone into the cellar of your darkest fears and knowing that you are still loved, Sunday afternoon smiles, someone who knows how you like your coffee and orders it before you get there. There is beauty in simplicity and comfort. You just have to know how to get there before it's too late. You aren't happy? You are frustrated? Someone sees something different then you? The world deserves someone better then you, so be better then you. You want your world to be better? Sit your ass down and let's talk about it. Stop running from it.
