Order of Things

Everything is useful. To a degree, of course. So don't celebrate anything above your breath, and don't mourn anything longer than you should. Joy and sorrow are just two different ways that build you as a person. Avoid neither, glorify none. In time you learn that even things you extremely don't like have a rightful place in your life. You can't shake them off, there is a law above your will. You have to rearrange them, change their priority level from high to low. And get on with your life. People you don't like won't magically vanish. Things you don't like doing won't stop just because you're tired of repetition. Muscles don't grow stronger without effort, patience and discipline. The same goes for your personality. It's a spiritual muscle. If you want to become the person you believe you deserve to be - earn it. Forget the world, prove it to yourself. Respect is not a human right, you have to build it. It starts within you and radiates to let others know how you see yourself.

So stop demanding, and start growing.
