Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.

“Mom, listen, I haven’t been together with Topanga for 22 years, but we have been together for 16. That’s a lot longer than most couples have been together. I mean, when we were born, you told me that we used to take walks in our strollers together around the block. When we were two, we were best friends. I mean, I knew everything about this girl. I knew her favorite color, her favorite food. Then we became six, Eric made fun of me because it wasn’t cool to have a best friend that was a girl or even know a girl. So for the next seven years I threw dirt at her. I like to call those “the lost years”. Then when I was thirteen, mom, she put me up against my locker and she kissed me. I mean, she gave me my first kiss. She taught me how to dance. She always was talking about these crazy things and I never understood a word she said. All I understood was that she was the girl I sat up every night thinking about, and when I’m with her, I feel happy to be alive. Like I can do anything. Even talk to you like this. So that’s, that’s what I think is love, mom. When I’m better because she’s here.” -

Why People Aren’t Happy

I’m just now realizing that the reason that people aren’t happy, the reason people aren’t content, is because we don’t appreciate what we have. Now, that statement alone isn’t what the profound thing is, that’s common knowledge. The profound part is that that is exactly how we were raised. We were taught to always make decisions with tomorrow in mind, never settle, there’s always something better out there for you. Not to say that there aren’t good ideals and some truths in those statements, however, as we grow older, we end up never happy with what he have, because we feel there are better things out there that we need to strive for. We are always striving for something better, when we have exactly what we need right in front of us. So instead of being happy with what we have, we are on an everlasting journey to better our situation, to make more money, to get fancier things, and we don’t realize that those kind of ideals are sucking the life and happiness out of us.
