Life in the fast lane.

Things have been moving pretty quickly around here lately. Relationships have come and gone, work passes more or less unnoticed, working out has gotten a lot easier, and it seems like theres something small to smile about on a consistent basis.

I've been seriously considering a couple of changes, and it's to the point now where I don't know if they are the best or most wise choices to make, but when the difference is more than just a couple of cents or a conversation that really backs no meaning or long term weight -- is there a reason to hold on?

Sometimes I feel like the things most important to me aren't what they should be, that I care about circumstances that really have no relevance in what will make my life successful, and continue to believe in those things out of doubt, or the unwillingness to believe that change can ever bring about anything positive.

Knowing where I've come from, and what I've put myself through in the last five or six years, understandably that is a lie; yet I can't quite tell myself to believe it. Or anything else for that matter.

I don't know what to believe anymore. Listening to the thoughts and feelings of others (more often than not) makes you a more compassionate and understanding person, I believe. But what happens when the people that are talking don't know what they want to say, how they want to say it, how they feel, or how to appropriately act on the way they feel with out stepping on peoples toes? I get it, I'm free to have feelings and so are you, but wouldn't you want your actions to reflect those feelings, and (in some cases) if your feelings aren't appropriate for the situation, shouldn't you act appropriately anyways?

Maybe it's me.

I guess I'm just trying to figure out how other people operate, in order to gain a better grasp on how and why they do the things they do.

Time to go to work,
Hurry back,
Michael
