I feel very Carried Bradshaw today. Pondering the things life has thrown at me lately. I can definitely say it has not been a stellar week. Between not seeing spawn, nor hearing from him all week. To this financial crisis/ lack of work issue, which is kinda getting out of control. To wanting to spend time with the new man in my life, but not really being able to.
Does love really ever win? In the lives we live today, you know the one that you have no time for anyone – that one. I even recently saw a post on Facebook about a friend having to schedule phone calls with her friend. I simply do not understand where society is going. If your family, friends, and lovers cannot make time for their counterparts – what are we all doing. Have we only to become an introverted society where we long for one another but yet want to do nothing with actually achieving this. I can’t even wrap my brain around it. Considering I am very black and white when I do things. Is it a yes or a no. Life can’t be truly live on the border of uncertainty. All that comes of this is the unrequired stress of the what if, or the should I. Sadly those who don’t want this, end up just cutting their losses. I have does this with many friendships, unfortunately. If you don’t want to spend time with me and you don’t talk to me, what choice do I really have? Same goes with romantic relationships if you don’t want to inventest you can’t expect the dividends.
So how can we possibly come out of this, when we are all driven my social media and hide behind our computers, phones, and excuses. What will be the breaking point, or will someone just shut everything down putting the world in a blackout. Then the funny thing will be, how will Millenials survive. If text message and DM’s would work anymore would people be more forward with their intentions since they would have to actually verbalize them? Who knows, we might never know now says the pessimistic side of me. The hopeful side says that one day everything will be okay. That those who you care about realize what they have and will work on saving and nurturing what is. Until then I guess all we can do is have patience.
XOXO
