Things To Consider The Next Time You Want To Feel Alive
"THIS IS A ROBBERY! GIVE ME ALL YOUR SADNESS" - me in my angriest tone to my loved ones. I'll find a way to scare these people from being sad if it is the last thing i do. Like, i really mean that! Sadness is a corruption on our soul. It does not help us get anywhere. More so it holds us back from moving on to our promised life's greatness or for those who put in the effort to make their world a better place the evil in the world it pulls them back and they are caught in a never ending cycle of being forced to babysit the evils of the world.

just a story… I melted when we first made eye contact in the lobby. She had long eye lashes, beautiful brown eyes, plump lips, and long blonde hair that almost looked white against her tan skin. Easily the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen and it wasn’t even close. So naturally what do I do? I continued on my path to the elevator, knowing that 1. she was probably out of my league and 2. I would never see her again anyway. Then, I hear my name called from behind me. My friend has stopped to talk to her and has said, “my boy over there thinks you’re attractive but he was just too shy, I’ll call him over.” So I walk over and he introduces us. “Hey, I’m Luke, what’s your name?” She offers her hand for me to shake. “It’s Ashley. I’m glad your friend made you come back. I was hoping you’d come talk to me when we made eye contact.” Ugh, she noticed that? At least that means she’s a little interested right? She has an accent, I think Spanish was her first language. “I was actually planning on coming back. I was gonna go upstairs so that I could reach in my bag and find something cool to say to you to use for when I got back,” I joke. She chuckles a little and doesn’t break eye contact. She’s stunning. “You can let me hand go, Luke.” So embarrassing that I was still holding it. It felt safe though, like something I was supposed to be doing. It felt right to be holding her hand and I think she felt the same way. “Let go? I was planning on taking you out, so I kinda have to hold your hand right?” She smiles and I can feel myself blushing. I do not believe in love at first sight, but this one is making me think about it…
