I am no celebrity and I care not for them myself. When your life is obsessed with creating an image rather than real relationship, something is definitely off.
I just turned 32 this year and here's a couple of "events" I noticed through my life:
At 26, you slowly see on your Facebook feed more and more of your friends getting married. Cool. Good for them. I decline going for most weddings though because I hate that shit.
From 27-30, you slowly see said married friends having their firstborn child.
From 31-21, you slowly start to hear news of your friends getting divorced. It's so scary, yet real.
The point is, relationships come and go.
Divorce is a reset button. It caused a reset in one of my best friend's lives this year. He's actually happy. Incidentally, I am also. Why? Because he's more free now to party with me. We've never been closer.
All these reset buttons happen in everyone's lives. While it happens to your friends, you're still here.
Here's a quote by Neil Strauss, writer of The Game. It's a book on learning how to talk to women, but he puts it so brilliantly:
“We have this idea that love is supposed to last forever. But love isn't like that. It's a free-flowing energy that comes and goes when it pleases. Sometimes, it stays for life; other times it stays for a second, a day, a month or a year. So don't fear love when it comes simply because it makes you vulnerable. But don't be surprised when it leaves either. Just be glad you had the opportunity to experience it.”
- Neil Strauss
I am still here. I am just here and I am open to anyone who wants to be in my life. Thanks @stellabelle for another great one.
Glad you found something useful in my thoughts.
Always do.
