you don't want to die, you want to live

this is a thought I had when I was younger

you know – that feeling you have when you look at what you have around you, and you are literally unsatisfied with everything

you overthink and you think that maybe life will be better if you are not around anymore

but overthink more, and you start to find the root of it

the reason of your unhappiness is because life isn't the way you want it to be

you are unhappy at how life currently is, not at life in general

if you change your life for the better, you will most likely feel better about it too

then it becomes clear

you don't want to die, you want to live

you don't want your life to be over. you just want the shitty parts to be gone

and that's what you should do

remove the parts you don't want, slowly

make more for new happenings to enter. and if you don't like them, remove the new ones too

until you are left with a life you somewhat like, eventually

and then go from there

    We strive for a perfect life.
    We hate our lives for the imperfections it has and we forget in the mean time that these imperfections make us unique. But after a time, we realise that some things need to be kept the way they are. We can’t change everything and it is how we live with it than how desperately we try to get rid of it.

    hey ron. i felt like i really needed to hear this. my friend passed on the 27th, and he was someone i trusted my life with. ive had many instances in my life where i always questioned myself if my life was even worth living anymore. no matter how optimistic i was, i would always fall into the same hole. a few years ago, i started to push everyone away. kept those who i knew would be there for me. but things didnt really get better. even now, the girl that i care about most isnt even replying me. it honestly feels like i’m a rag doll and everyone is pulling my strings. i’m sorry fir dumping all of this bullshit onto you, but i really don’t have anyone to talk to right now. i keep trying to live day by day, like none of the bad things ever happened but it’s honestly inevitable. as much as i wish things were different, it is what it is.

    Yes, I think it’s true. But it takes a lot of efforts and time. It’s hard even if you’re taking it easy. Well, for me, there was a lot of “I just can’t take it anymore, fuck. Is it better that I just disappear?” But I still keep moving, because I simply want to live.
