Sad Things
Ordinarily, this journal would be difficult for me to write, especially with it being the holiday season. I am usually eagerly anticipating all the wonderful gifts I will receive and can’t wait to find out what everyone else thinks of their gifts. This year is somewhat different. I rarely think of my gifts and can hardly believe that Christmas is less than 2 weeks away.
I don’t normally get sad. I think of all I have; a roof over my head, clothes, friends (although they are few and far between) I can count on, and family who loves me. I can’t help but feel sad sometimes. I have lost so many friends this year, be it to differing opinions or because they no longer had time for me. I can’t help but think of the times I lashed out at my friends and never said “I’m sorry”. I cannot dwell on the sadness though because if I do, I will only end up dragging myself down with the “what if’s”. Life is too short to dwell on the sad parts. I just have to remember that “there’s always tomorrow” and if I live to see tomorrow, I’m given the chance to change.
