The weekend went by so quickly *sigh* It's too bad.

Sometime I feel like time needs to go by very slowly so I can actually really enjoy every moment of the weekend. I'm truly realizing how fast time seems to go by, everyday, every moment is gone before you even realize it. Our time on earth is so little. I try to take it day by day not getting caught up in the wonders of our existence. Its hard to live your day to day life normally constantly thinking about how temporary your existence is here and how your loved ones will all leave you at some point or another. It's a sad way of thinking but quite sobering at the same time. Makes your everyday nuisances trivial and puts life into perspective. Every time I end up being upset with myself over everyday things like embarrassing myself or saying the wrong thing, I think to myself, does this really matter? Should I really spend my time obsessing over this thing. I'm beginning to accept myself the way I am and even when I screw up, I shrug my shoulders and tell myself to not spend even a second more thinking about it and move my thoughts onto something new, and I actually end up taking my advice and forget all about the stupid thing that upset me. Truth is we are all going to die, so why obsess over these dumb thing, look at the big picture and appreciate the small things in life, appreciate moments, appreciate feelings and appreciate the presence of people you love, you can look fondly back at this moments and be so thankful for these experiences. Never be to hard on yourself, you are a human with feelings, treat yourself with love and be kind.

You are a great human being heart
