Just this and that

Sometimes everything makes so much sense. When your head is completely clear and you just amusedly review what you had been thinking important. You brush all of it aside thinking how silly you’ve been. Nothing really matters except that one important thing. And that’s all there is to it. It’s you. Funny how advice comes back to you, when you need it the most. Amusing how it catches you by surprise. Crazy how you never thought of it. Relieving that you gave it to someone else. Who threw it back to you. Sometimes life is too cool. Dum dee dee dum.

It’s funny how people remember promises made in ’92 and ask you fifteen years later if you remember. It’s slightly sad how something uttered by a person off hand, can be treasured for so long and held precious. It’s strange how a silly memory can make someone’s day and make them want to live differently. It’s surprising how things that seem to be lost forever seem to come back to life in an afternoon’s time. It’s pissing off to know that what you may have held on to for years may just be nothing at all. And the fact that you don’t care make you wonder who you actually are. Fascinating how things fall into place in a very different way than you ever thought they would. Pleasant how they seem just perfect the way they are. Bizarre how you catch the scent you liked in the most unlikely place ever and how glad you are that you found it. Weird how you look forward to things you also dread. Disappointment that you don’t fall down when you expected you would. As much as you dreaded that scratch, it would’ve been a pretty cool thing to say to yourself that you could fall and still laugh. Because it really didn’t hurt too much and you’re super man. Comforting how seemingly arbitrary things bring to you as much happiness as you could’ve ever hoped for. How different things make a complete day. How every one of them was important to make the day complete. How you can’t solve everything and there’s lots more to learn than you possibly could have. How breezes seem to be timed perfectly and cars honk to rudely interrupt your thoughts. How control isn’t really an issue at times. And how things make you smile in the stupidest way possible. Especially when the sources are from the most unlikely quarters possible :)
