Open your eyes


The thought kinda hit me right there over the peach/mango tea, why are people stuck in the ”life is boring”-mentality? Since I moved here I've seen much less of that, which I chose to sum up in the fine conclusion that this is mainly applicable to the country up north. I've experienced enough people up there with this attitude to be able to make a SLIGHT generalization. Why are mondays horrible when they should be awesome for a new week has started? Why are weekends considered better than week days? Why is it nicer to be off work than working? Why do people tend to party their asses off every weekend as if they celebrate being ”free” for a bit? Why is there so disturbingly much focus on shopping and getting more without any form of appreciation for what you already have? Why does it seem like people live for the special moments and not the beauty of the everyday life? Why do people tend to get sad and down when they come back from a vacation, and not happy they've experienced something new? Why is a vacation even better than the normal life?

Why don't people appreciate the everyday life?! If you can't stand mondays, change your life. You're not stuck in your own life, you have a choice, make your life exciting and fun. It makes me sad when people complain about stuff that can be changed, because it means they haven't realized the wonderfulness of the simple things in life. You should wake up with a smile, grateful you even have the opportunity to do so. Honestly, please open your eyes and realize what you have, if you're not happy with your life; change it.
