Do you like dreaming of things so impossible or only the practical...

A wise friend once told me "Whatever happens, happens. Don't regret the decision. You can always change it later," and I'm trying to go off those words. I sat in the bathtub last night, that amazingly has these jet things to make it more like a hot tub, but with cooler water...ahh, but I digress (I love baths, sorry). Anyway, I sat there thinking of the decisions that led me to this point and while I do have my regrets about my decisions, I'm gonna try and move on and make something positive about it. I can't stop dreaming or put my life on hold because I'm too busy trying to contemplate the bad choices I make in life. I'm gonna go one day at a time and make something of this new life that I'm starting, whether it be here in NY or in IN.

I have to think of the practical, not the impossible. The Beatles once said, "happiness is a warm gun," and it is very much like that in that I have to pull the trigger. Play a Russian roulette, if you will, on my state of being. One day I will pick the right chamber and be really happy, but for now, I'm hitting the empty chambers; it's one game I want to lose at.

I'm gonna get a move on here and make something of myself before time passes me by, and while time does that, it can heal a few wounds on the way.

(Listening to "So Impossible"~~ "...or waiting through all your bad days just to end them..." I'm always playing the waiting game; the life of an impatient person)
