Crazed Emotions

Sometimes in life things get tough when they don't need to. Many times they are cause by a simple act of well.. stupidity. Most times it is created or caused or acted upon because of anger or some emotion linked to that. Why do we feel the need to get angry right back at someone just because they're doing something we don't like. It's so easy just to get mad. They hard thing is to prevent that emotion from leaking into all other areas of our lives. We do not always realize what happens to us when we get angry, all personality changes and we are literally not ourselves. We let our emotions rule our actions.

Caged

Sometimes in life it seems we are trapped in a cage, but it in reality we are always we just don't always realize it. We are constantly trapped in some sort of cage whether it is created by us, our circumstances, or the people around us. Some cages are good for us and some are not, some keep us safe by keeping us with what we know or what our parents won't let us do yet , and some we put ourselves into with the choices we have made. Most of the time we create our cages by letting other's opinions influence what we think of ourselves and what we can do. What we do not see is that the doors of these cages are always open. Sometimes there seems to be a hand right outside ready to catch us if we attempt to escape. Other times the door stays open for what feels an eternity but we do not attempt to get out because when we do it means we are no longer in that safe place we know that may keep us in but also keeps many unknown dangers out. The truth is we must continually escape these cages and grow to leave them behind because although they seem to keep us where we do or don't want to be with out escaping we will never experience anything new and eventually will be forced out of our safest and most comfortable cages. It all begins with the first step out. Some cages will be escaped and forgotten more easily than others but never stop trying because they will get easier as you continue. Though it may seem the cage is getting smaller and smaller or time continues to move without you as you try to escape, there will always be people out of the cage waiting for you to help you along and find those who will always be there because those are the people you want to stay with and rely on because they are the ones that will not create cages for you and will always help you escape.

Why is it so hard to do a little thing?

So this is me. I don't really know why i've made this blog but this is where i plan to write what i wouldn't say, forgot to say, and wish i would say outloud. In most my postings i probably won't pay much attention to grammar and punctuation and etc, so if you're one of those english freaks you probably want to stop reading now before you have a heart attack, but if you continue just remember it's your fault if your brain has an overload and explodes all over your computer. This is my blog so i'll do with it what i want so if all i write sounds like a bunch of gibberish that ok you'll get used to it if your a regular reader, which i kinda hope you're not too regular cause that could be creepy.


Anyways I decided to write a little about what i was thinking about earlier today. As i went out of my way to step on a leaf, i wondered why i would bother to go out of my way to step on a small leaf that wouldn't bring much to me except the satisfaction of well... stepping on a small, yellow, crunchy, leaf. Oh and no that is not the actual leaf, the actual leaf would we squished. But squishing the leaf got my brain going on why do we save just that little bit in the bowl of cookie dough so we have just enough for a good finger full of the sweet lump of ingredients that happen to taste good together, why is it that it is much more fun to do something when we have to sneak around to do it, and why isn't whipped cream really whipped cream till it has ended up on someones face? Those questions brought up the extremely large question why is it so easy to take the extra time to do those things and so hard to take the extra two seconds to listen to a friend, say hi to an old lady, give a compliment to a stranger, smile at a brother or sister, say thank you to almost anyone(insert your choice names here if you'd like, of who you owe thank you's)? Why do we do those little things that seem so easy and bring a small and temporary jitter of happiness, but neglect the even easier because we let the world convert our minds into thinking it is just too much. these are the strange questions that come to me and the strangest times and i hope to answer and tend to answer for myself but i can only hope i can live up to my own thoughts of what advise i give myself and others occasionally and now i'm only rambling on with what gibberish and what word vomit is in my head. This first entry really makes me sound a little weird compared to the usual teenager's blog but i its only fair that i let you know again that you should really get used to that if you want to read any other future posts that i may eventually write, i tell you this only to prevent any extra confusion besides the confusion that will be brought on from the actual reading of other entries. confused?
