Sometimes I stop and think about the things that I live for.
My morals, principles, and values all stay the way it should, relatively stable and only deviating to make room for improvements.
I'm talking about the little things we strive for in the short run.
Many times, it might be grades, a job, a certain new product, etc.
But I stop now and think on my desires, and I can't help but think: is it all just trivial pursuit?
Am I really chasing something worthwhile or is it all immediate gratification that I seek?
Am I living from object to object? Goal to goal? Or is there something worthwhile in the plethora of random crap I look forward to?
I realize that I'm being extremely vague at times in my blogs. And honestly, I'll probably forget what I was talking about in a few months. But its interesting because its the internet.
And EVERYTHING I say or write is potentially exposed to anyone that might take interest in what I say. Its kind of scary and also inconvenient, but it is what it is.
Also, I don't understand why people rant on blogs and stuff about other people anonymously.
Like "I hate your guts." statuses and the like. Its really immature, tacky, and wholly ineffective.
Will that person you speak of see that status and realize that they need to change?
Personally, I wish people would just talk to each other and figure their things out the good ol' fashioned way: face-to-face, person-to-person, heart-to-heart.
It may be harder than anonymous hate posts online, but its more effective and its the "bigger man" thing to do instead of hiding behind the digital wall of pure ignorant hate.
