(insert profound song lyric here)

Because right now, I can't think of one, and I don't want to force anything into being a title. It has to flow naturally. It has to be the song that makes its way into my mind and refuses to leave.

I'm completely lost right now.

I feel like such an awful person. I can't bring myself to completely ignore people, so the only other option is for me to be labeled as a creeper.

I feel another friendship dissolving right under the eggshells I find myself walking on so I don't get myself in trouble...again.

I was looking forward to a happy summer. Instead, I'm jobless, constantly being compared to my siblings or other family members, and more and more people seem to hate me every day.

I look at my siblings, then I look at myself, and I wonder what the hell went wrong. My sister, who nearly didn't graduate high school, is leaving next week for basic training for the Navy. So of course everyone's proud of her.

And my step brother...has a job, has a girlfriend, has his own vehicle that he can afford to insure himself. So of course everyone's proud of him, they hold him up as a model for everyone else to emulate, they openly applaud everything from how he has his life under control to how even though he's finally committed to ONE girl, he's still doing the responsible thing and waiting until after they're both done with school before they get married.

Then they turn to me and say, "Have you considered match.com?"

Grrrrrr...this is why I'm going to drink...after I turn 21 that is...

Don't compare or contrast your self with others. The way of nature works in mysterious ways - you may not know it, but your life is exactly perfect just as it is - your life is following a path that is right for you in the long run, but there is no way to know the future that nature will bring. A certain amount of suffering is required to learn the value of being alive and to learn from experience how to protect others from the same kind of suffering. Follow your heart without hesitation - there is no need to question the past.
