Shut Up Your Face...Book.

You would think, that having next to nothing happen in my life would mean I have more time to write this blog. Im never short of fuck ups in my own head and surely I have ample disingenuous character flaws to be able to share them with the world. However life doesnt work that way.
The less fulfilled I am emotionally, the lazier I get physically.
In fact, I dont even know what Im doing on here right now - this isnt Facebook?
Yes, my life has been taken up with the humdrum existence that is the Newsfeed chain of my 500+ acquaintances. I live vicariously through them. I hear of births, deaths, engagements through them. Since the advent of facebook, my phone usage has gone down by atleast 100-200 dollars each month, I kid you not.
Deep down inside though, I can't helo but wonder - is this all there is to life?
Am I a glass half empty girl, or am I a glass half full kind of person? I think I'm a glass half empty person. There is no benefit to walking around thinking everything is happy and gay and unicorns shit rainbows while leprechauns give you hand jobs. It just sets yourself up for that hollow feeling of disappointment when the leprechaun fucks off with your wallet due to your distraction by stepping in unicorn shit.
People who think life is a glass half empty maybe are not very good with letting go. They pine after love lost, they hanker for the life less ordinary, they bear grudges of origins unknown. Thats why when I drink, I brace myself for the last gulp, slam it down and then immediately look round for another drink. But does this make me pessimistic? No, I think it just makes me able to keep up with the big boys.
If your glass is half full all the time then why not get a smaller glass?

Good luck in life and love,

Honey xxx

  1. You're right. We all need to get smaller glasses and stop staring at them. We need to look through the glass and out toward life itself. The glass is kind of representing facebook in a way really.
