|Just to Get by|

This morning I woke up,

feeling brand new,

I jumped up.

Feeling my HIGHS

and my LOWS

and my SOUL

and my GOALS.

Just to stop smoking

and stop drinking

well I been thinking,

I have my reasons.

Just to get by.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've realized that, as humans, we are creatures of habit.

We live in our fantasy world all cooped up in our own minds.

We create these daily routines and map out schedules for our lives without even realizing it.

Why?

To me it feels as if by doing this i'm preventing myself from truly living.

Almost putting a chokehold on what I truly want and desire in my life. Why would I subject myself to a routine that I most likely don't like? Because it makes us comfortable? It feels normal? No I don't know why we do such things.

Did I mention I hate this place.
