Most people, if they had really learned to look into their own hearts, would know that they do want, and want acutely, something that cannot be had in this world. There are all sorts of things in this world that offer to give it to you, but they never quite keep their promise. -C.S. LewisThis quote really jumped out to me tonight. I get so sick of putting faith in people, only to be let down in the end. Broken promises, empty hope...sometimes it all seems useless. But, maybe that's the point. Maybe being let down so much by different things in the world ( friends, family, relationships, jobs, school, the list goes on and on) maybe that's just a reminder that we can't ever fully rely on things of the world. I don't usually get all deep, but I've really been feeling like I need to stop worrying so much about things that don't matter in the end. I know that complete and total happiness is inside of me: what (or Who, I should say) is living in my heart each and every day. And maybe if I stopped getting so annoyed and upset about everything around me and just decided to be peaceful and content...maybe I'd get further in life and be just plain happier.
On another note, it's really beginning to feel like fall outside and that just makes me sooo happy. It's not that I don't love sunny, warm days, but hello, it's OCTOBER. I'm ready to break out the boots and scarves and carve a pumpkin or something. OMG...or watch "Hocus Pocus"! Ahhhhh *giddy kid moment*Well..that's all for now.
