Lessons learned

So it occured to me that life is tough. Its a simple thought that people tend to overlook. Instead of thinking "oh well, this will pass and it will get better" we tend to think "why me? " This form of thinking is very self centered. Not in a bad way, I just meant literally. We think that we are the exception, that nothing bad is ever supposed to happen to us. I am the one and only, I'm the reason the world can live on. What will they do withourt me?  Of course I'm not saying that I don't think that way, but I feel like if we all become aware of this thinking, then maybe we can begin to change it. Instead of "get out of my way I want to go home," you might be thinking,"gee, I bet these people want to go home just as bad as myself, maybe even more. What if the person who just cut me off has a wife in labor and I'm in their way instead the other way around." I'm just saying, maybe we can catch our thoughts next time we're feeling like the worlds against us. Because life is tough and everyone has to deal with it, not just you or me.
