Flames to Embers

So, yesterday I went to this bonfire party with my friends. And after everybody had left, I stayed to get some alone time. You see, I was having a tough week because last Monday, the universe suddenly decided that it hated me and started to conspire against me. Hence my state of mind. This time I was pretty sure that I wouldn't recover so I sat alone, in  front of the restless flames, feeling as if nothing was going to be okay ever again. As I sat there, hopelessly pondering, the fire started to die. And as I saw the flames turn to embers, something occurred to me.

The Broken Ones

Why do bad things happen to good people? This one question has bothered me for a very long time and I have managed to receive nothing but vague and senseless explanations from everyone. I even googled it with zero success. Most of the stuff that I came across was extreme form of spiritual bullshit or stories of failed suicide attempts meant to make people feel better. It's fine if bad things happen to those who deserve them. They sort of have it coming but I particularly cannot understand why people, who have been nothing but good, get screwed over by destiny. 

Here's to Comebacks

You know that feeling that you get when someone tells you that you're not good enough. Or that you can't do something? I felt that way last year when an asshole totally underestimated me. Fine, I agree that I did give him a reason to say so, but let me tell you, that no one gets to tell me what I can or cannot do and no one gets judge me especially when they don't know me. And I think that particular thing is true for all of us. We shouldn't let others dictate our boundaries.

Farewell, Dear Love

A certain somebody has his birthday tomorrow and I'm not sure if I should make a call. You see we haven't talked in while and I am actually considering the possibility that he might have sort of forgotten about me. I mean we both moved on and burnt the bridges but for some reason I still think about him every now and then. I know its stupid to dwell upon your past but I just spent the entire day trying to think of a less-than-awkward birthday wish which brings me to wondering how some people always stay  in your life long after the final link between both of you has snapped.
