Reflecting on Life
If my life was a song, right now it'd be: "Under pressure". Great song but the connotations are rather depressing. I don't just feel under pressure to do well in my exams, I've got to balance so many things, I have to look after myself and my own problems as well as deal with other peoples and sometimes it gets a little too much. I know a lot of people are probably going through something simular right now and I'm very lucky to have people that will stick by me and help me but sometimes you can't help but feel a little down about these things.
My sociology teacher actually made a very good point the other day. We don't have control over much in our lives, the only thing we truelly have control over is suicide. Which is kinda sad but true I think! Of course, we can all make decisions that effect our lives but we can't predict (and therefore change) the outcome. Although I have to say "je ne regrette rien". I don't think there's much in my life that I actually regret doing, when I've made the wrong decision, which is good! Maybe I have good judgement or maybe I'm just kidding myself to stop myself from feeling bad I don't really know. Either way, it doesn't matter. Life is good, if a little stressful but isn't everyones? Everyone has their own problems (I should know as people seem to constantly tell theirs to me!) but sometimes it is good to stop and reflect on what is making you happy or unhappy. It helps you decide what to do about it, how to move on, how to come over the problem. If we ignore our unhappiness and continue life as normal, we're ignoring the problems and they're only going to get worse. Proof that sadness is sometimes the solution! Every emotion is important and has a reason I think :)
