It took me 18 years to be okay with how the world works. After 216 months I've finally realized that it's okay to be sad when other people are happy, it's okay to be happy when other people are sad. It took me six thousand, five hundrend and seventy days for me to be okay with people leaving, for me to accept that that's just the way life has to be at times. Sometimes the people we love leave, sometimes we only see that we loved them after they're already gone. After 157785 hours I've decided that i'm okay with that. This is the way things are. I've also realized that maybe, just maybe..the people that matter will never really leave you. And i'm okay with that, too.
This is good. I'm 33 and I'm still figuring some of that stuff out.

I know you're not supposed to laugh at funerals, but man...it's tough sometimes. Sometimes it's so awkward and weird and uncomfortable that laughing is the only thing that feels right.
Or maybe I'm just an insensitive jerk.

I loved every line in this post. The world seems so unbalanced. Thanks for pointing it out.
