Well wow a journal XD
hmmm, song/story space?
NEW LYRICS w00T!
idk how good it is, im just writing it, it follows the first one that i did, portaying the thoughts of the past few hours. After meh break up, about how i settled and didnt go for what I've wished for for so long. I think the second entry is better, but ill put this one here for the hell of it. COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS PLZ!!!

The Disillusioned.


I tried to place you in the past,
I tried to convice myself it wasn't right,
I tried to find it elsewhere,
But now I know,
that I shouldn't have tried so hard.

Then I thought that I found it,
my genuine article,
something that would last.
But now I know,
That I shouldn't have tried so hard.

But then I went with my head,
not my heart,
and now I end up at square one;
but now I know,
I shouldnt have tried so hard.

Maybe next time I'll feel,
not think,
I'll go with the subliminal,
because now I know,
Its been there all along.

Maybe things will go rough,
Maybe I'll want to die,
Maybe all things will end,
but at least I'll know,
If I was right or wrong.

Wow that’s great. I can relate again. Going with what your brain says won't make you the slightest bit happy! And being happy is all that really matters in life. Only following what your heart wants can bring you true happiness. However usually the brain wants more logical sensible things whereas the hearts desires are often a lot more difficult to obtain. But no matter how painful following the heart may be I agree that it’s probably the choice that would make one happier in the long run. But then again if you follow your heart and it leads you nowhere what are you s'posed to do? Then you're screwed no? For in my situation the logical seemingly less painful thing to do would be to forget and move on and work on college trying to obtain success through an education and hopefully good career. Now what I'm doing now is following my heart. It very painful but when I think of the possibilities I know that’s what I want to do. The possible outcome of sticking with my true feelings is a much greater fulfilling happiness than the shallow benefits of the other. Here are my choices as of now. Follow my brain: Do well in college, get a job in foreign language interpretation, live and work in Japan. That'd be doing what I love. Now follow my heart: Bear the pain and worry everyday, work hard in college but towards a much less satisfying job that would allow me to stay here, and maybe just maybe not even certainly, be with who I love again. Following my brain probably has a 90% success rate. I know if I did that those things would turn out as I expect. Following my heart...right now it looks like there’s a 15% or lower chance of those dreams ever becoming true. So what do I do!? Of course I sacrifice a safe sound future and I fight for what my heart wants until I get it or I end up a washed out wasted shell of a person. Thumbs up to stupidity and human nature!!!
