Simple pleasures?

I spent half hr at Times Sq last night and I realized that sometimes the smallest things in life can give you so much happiness and satisfaction. Little things like watching people and the craziness around you can make you realize that you don't need to spend money, or you don't need a big group of people to have fun. We are so engrossed in our daily lives that we miss the obvious! We don't realize what we have and where we are...

why do we do what we do?

I am wondering today why we spend so much energy, time and effort on doing something that neither gives us satisfaction nor a stress-free life..sometimes we just go with the flow without realizing that there is a need for change. The change doesn't need to be a transformation!! Maybe change means to stop and re-think - what is my purpose? what is the meaning in what I'm doing? maybe just giving yourself a reality check!!

try try try

its one of those times when you have reached a dead end...im tiring away...trying to keep someone happy...making an effort to overcome my shortcomings...trying to make them feel better in every which way...trying not to get frustrated...trying to hide my moods...trying to keep smiling...trying to hide my emotions...not being able to express myself freely...expressing myself freely means more fighting and screaming...shutting up means a more frustrated me...i have reached a crossroad - i make a left turn, i reach a dead end..i make a right turn, i reach a dead end...maybe it's time to let go?
