It Gets Better

Hey friends, it's been a while, I apologize for that...but it feels good talking to you guys again. There's so much to say...so funny thing...yesterday, I went downstairs at like 2 am, everyone's asleep...I open the fridge and take out this box of leftovers someone brought home and I eat it. Then I kinda said to myself...wow, I'd be the worst roommate ever LOOOL...like waking up in the middle of the night...eating people's food, drinking people's drinks LOOL, then of course,,,blaming someone else lol. So April was a very slow month for the blog...cuz obviously I didn't post...but I was looking at the stats and there was only 1,034 views for that month...to give y'all context, it hasn't been that low since January and February of 2011 with 1,092 and 1,201 hits. TAKE THIS IN THO...MAY...pulled in a TOTAL of 27,359 views, again...some context...the most viewed month of all time is March 2015 with 15,482...now I don't know what happened in the month of May...but geeeeeez...almost 30,000 hits just for the month of May., other than those 2 months...only one other month has gotten over 10,000 hits and that's May of 2016....okay, sorry...enough numbers...let's talk.

I guess you can take this as a continuation of my previous post. Things really to get better...in time. Sometimes, we get so caught up in wanting things to get better immediately that we don't see that things are getting better...just little bit by little bit. I rolled my ankle like a couple of weeks ago and every day I was super annoyed because I wanted to get back to 100% asap...I wanted to be able to run, jump, play basketball...it was annoying. After realizing it wasn't going to miraculously heal right away...I started seeing the little improvements and bits of progress in my ankle. One day, I'd be able to stretch it a little bit more, the next day I'd be able to walk without any discomfort, the next some light jogging and now I'm full on running with minimal discomfort. Everything in life gets better...in time...I forget that a lot because you wanna get better right away...no one wants to be sad or angry...they wanna get better right away...but it doesn't work like that. I told y'all about the girl I kinda fell for...I didn't expect...but I wanted to be better right away...I wanted to stop hurting, I wanted to be happy. But it didn't work that way...it took time. Each passing day, each morning waking up...it got easier...I didn't have urges to text her, to look at her pictures or whatever...to the point where one morning, I woke up, sat up and literally kinda zoned out for 2 minutes...and I mumbled to myself...wow, things really do get better. I was so focused on wanting to get back to normalcy right away...but it's a process. Don't look at it as how much you have left to go, but see it as how far along you've come...I guarantee you'll feel a lot better...and you'll see how much progress you've made rather than how much distance you have left to go. With that...just wanted to share with y'all this one song.
