Midnight

Just my melancholic, cheesey, and mostly wacky thoughts. More importantly, what my set of witty, overly opinionated friends think about them.

Midnight Anxiety: The Roundabout

The Roundabout. I was recently faced with a fork in the road between friends and the pursuit for real friendships away from home. Had I made the choice not to work things out and just be the realist I've learnt to become, this dilemma would have been over by now. But I chose otherwise, so here we are...

Sometimes the choices you make are not paths to points of no return, but rather roundabouts that make you face the same choices again, and force you to reassess the decisions you made before.

Cause I know my heart's worth saving
And I know that they'll be waiting
So I'll hold on
And I'll stay strong 'til then...

-Adapted Excerpt from I Know Him by Heart, V.S.

When you are given this second chance, listen to what your intuition tells you. Because in that sea of uncertainty, it's those little pockets of truth that really count.

I choose reality...

i could not agree more with what you said. it's when you're alone that you start to see things in a different, perhaps more profound, perspective. you realize what's missing, what's not supposed to be there, the purpose behind it all and stuff like that. now i realize why you said that your friends are getting quotes from your blog. amazing writing! take care there in copenhagen. =) ~mai

Thanks for the praise mai. I guess from my past experiences I've learned how to articulate even my deepest thoughts when the need arise.
