i have no patience for those who sit around wasting their lives complaining about how troubled their existence is. if your life sucks, do something about it. make your life worth living.

two years ago, i never would have thought that i would be able to say something like that. i thought that being depressed made me look cool, made me seem more real or more like an artist, but i had it all wrong. it's lame and fake. i only blame myself for whatever sadness i felt. i would get upset because i didn't go out on weekends, but i never really organized anything myself or tried to figure out what people were doing. and it was never a matter of people hating me, it was just me allowing myself to despair about the little things that are not worth getting upset over. i have been told this so many times and i always thought that it was corny and untrue, but life is totally what you make it. and i refused to be locked into a detrimental mindset that will keep me from enjoying the few bits of life that i can appreciate. things are going well and they are only going to get better. i am looking forward to many good times.
