Heaven and hell may just all be part of our natural, living, human condition. How many lifetimes have you lived within your own life already? For the ones you lived well were you not rewarded? For the ones you lived poorly were not they followed by worse ones. Yeah, it's a downward spiral. The times that suck causing us to do bad things that only make things suck more which only causes us to do more bad things. The only way to end it and to improve your condition is to let go. Let go of the pride that drives you to avenge the ways you have been wronged. Let go of the pride that keeps on telling you that you deserve better and just accept what you have and be thankful for it. Enjoy what you have and more will come. Keep aching for the things that you haven't got, burn your energy up on desire and feelings of dissapointment and you will forever be without the energy to improve your situation. This is easier said than done. To know the way is one thing, but to actually be able to walk the path is something all together different. I was high, but it wasn't enough so, now I am low and if I could let go I could be happy again, but right now I am just too pissed off about the thing that brought me down. It was, after all, no better and probably less deserving of happiness than I. That's enough of my personal shit. The cold hard fact of the matter is that it don't really fucking matter what you deserve. You get what you get and you better be happy with it. It's merely an accident of birth that some people are born into unfortunate circumstances, Babies born addicted to crack or into impoverished starving countries, and so many of us still, born into this land of milk and honey, have the gall to be dissatisfied with OUR living condition? It's a fucking joke and yet, guess what, even though I know this I am still not laughing. I'm still aching for the things that I haven't got and waiting for Captain Jack. Aren't we all?
