A New Hope. (P.S. Has nothing to do with Star Wars)

    Its an odd feeling to be filled with a new hope. Only because you can't believe that you went so long with out it.  I don't know if it is because a family member is getting married or if its because I found something to look forward to in life and the career I want to follow.  Maybe its a combo but it is a good thing none the less.

    It seems that I have finally come to terms with all the things that happened during college and how if anything changed then the people in my life would have changed.  It's super trite and corny to look at it that way but its true.  I was looking at some friends blogs and how uncertain they are about life and all I can say is "Sack up!"  If you don't like where you are emotionally, geographically, or where you are on "the road of life," then change it. Life doesn't take you where you want.  Its the other way around dumbass.

   I'm really tired of hearing how people are "forever single" or "never wanted."  First of all get out of you head.  Nothing good ever happens in your head.  Secondly, take the advice I took for a friend; "When you stop looking for it, it happens."  Is there something so wrong about being by yourself anyway?  Yeah I know that sounds like a huge single line but would you rather be in some shitty worthless relationship so you can escape the thought of being single and all of what that encompasses?  There is something wrong in this generation that makes it acceptable to hide from themselves.  Over half of all marriages end in divorce these days.  Are we so oblivious to ourselves that ending a marriage or relationship is easier than to realize we create problems?  Are we so lonely that we make bigger deals of things because it takes the edge off of other problems?

    Yeah this ended up being a "I hate my generation!!!!:( :( :(" blog but I'm not hating all of it.  Just some parts.  I just feel that this generation has never really seen a huge problem and when they do they have a safe place to be protected from it.  The boomerang effect has sheltered us from the harshness of life that could teach us.  The boomerang effect is when kids graduate from college they come back home to save money rather than get a job and a loan and live away from their family. Is that really what we need?  Does it strengthen us to not go through these troubled times?  It just seems like we won't ever evolve to where we need to be, to help us grow as a species.

    I'm drunk.  These are feelings I have.  I'm just really tired of hearing tweets and update about "I'm single =( boohoo" or "Life is teh sucksors," FUCKING TRY HARDER.  And if you tried your hardest then I guess you have to try harder.  Life isn't about complaining about what you could've had.  It's about the journey you took to get to where you want and what you want.  Oh, and stop tweeting that shit.  It's really annoying.
