You think you have it all figured out, huh?

There are some things in this world that we just cannot change. As unfortunate as it is, it's part of life.

Recently, I have come to realize that I cannot control everything. This is not something that is easy for me to comprehend. I have control issues. Although the one thing I cannot control is myself. The way I feel, the way I speak, the way I move about my life. I have several uncontrollable "bad" habits. Really, truth is.. I could control them, or put a restraint on the them anyways, I just would rather not. It's what I'm used to.. it's what I like.. and most importantly, as fucked up as it all is, it's what makes me happy. And whether you'd like to admit it or not.. you only do what you know too. It's our comfort zone. Nothing to really be ashamed of, we can't help our innate behavior. It's something that is apart of who we are, and will always be.

"Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. Maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciating small victories. Admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. Maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know. And maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate."
