I need you to understand something. I wrote this for you. I wrote this for you and only you. Everyone else who reads it, doesn’t get it. They may think they get it, but they don’t. This is the sign you’ve been looking for.
You were meant to read these words.

The Roof
You have a roof over your head. Food in your stomach. People who know your name and use it. A blanket. A pillow. A sun that rises and sets.
I know. But sometimes it doesn't feel like that is enough and I hate it because it is. And when I know it is I feel bad because how could I be happy when so many other people are unhappy? And then I lose myself and I can't get myself back again for a while.
i love this sentence..everytime i read it, it's feels like innocence comes back to me..you know..that childhood innocence that makes you believe in the simplicity of life..of the world..
we need that every once in a while.. thanks for this.
to alix.. "the best time to be found is when you are lost" hang on..
I know. I am happy for a very simple reason. I feel I don't have the right not to be. Many people around me either, but it's my own happiness I can decide the best about.

ReplyDeleteThose moments when I feel lost are the worst.
