Quick! Ask Zooey what stops xrays!

It's interesting to me the way people chose to react to situations in life. Most of the time you think it would be more beneficial for you and everyone to live by cliches such as "don't sweat the small stuff" but that isn't the way it works anymore. There's a bigger picture that we miss because we're too busy nit picking at all of the bullshit day to day battles and obstacles we have to deal with. I'm not on any high horse, I do this all of the time too. I think that when it comes down to it you just have to weed out the shit in your life you disagree with and then move on. Don't get heated when it comes back up every once and a while, there are more important things to tend to. Getting caught up in day to day struggles will put you nowhere good in life.

I'm not really sure what I'm even talking about. It's 4:00am and I'm waiting for Black Teeth to get to my house so I can get some sleep and go to the zoo tomorrow. I guess I just see people lose themselves in trivial things everyday like their bad 6 hours spent at work or something said about them by another person. All of that shit is always going to be in your life. You have to make the choice to let it dictate who you are or give it an ultimate face push and stay positive. To hold onto another boring cliche, life isn't fair. I think the sooner we all accept that the better.

That doesn't mean that people shouldn't be held accountable for their actions. But, if you actually care about it then please act on and don't waste your time smackin your lips together. All that's gonna get is spit all over your chin and your situation nowhere. If you hate someone, tell them and move on. If you love someone, give them that news. If you want to be an activist then be one. But don't sit in your room bottling up all of your emotions and then talking down to people when they don't agree with you. It's easy to sensationalize things.

This isn't about a particular situation. I'm just trying to stay positive in my life. I've been a slave to misery and depression for so long. I'm trying not to confuse that with anger though. You should keep the anger but lose the loathing, and lose the hate. The hate is what really tears away at you, mainly the self hatred. Rather than dwelling on why I hate people and things I'm trying to dwell on the reasons why I am not like those people or things. Reasons like my friends, my family, my girlfriend, punk rock, straight edge, etc. Sweat the small stuff and you'll be drenched in it. I should probably clean so these guys don't think we're total losers, even though we are.

I'll go back on everything I said because that's who I am.
