Getting older and shit; realizing that I life in the suburbs sounds terrifying to me, but it’s what most of the people in my life are working towards

Not at all happy with life. But.

Dwell on the things you do enjoy. Be the person you want to be. My brother loves the city and is happy with rent. I don’t have much of a love for one over the other. But I don’t like the idea of rent forever. So I lean suburb.

Stay in the city if you want.

I like the little things. Sitting calmly and drinking my coffee. Watching the clouds. Watching people do their own little things. I had a hard time accepting that for years because people saw it as simple and lazy. But in the end it’s what I enjoy.

Be yourself. And if you like find others that accept that.

To discover that I was divorced for not “being someone she could retire early with”. My heart was ripped out and dragged along the burning coals. I’m on my way back up. But haven’t come anywhere near the surface yet.
