Listening To Love Songs

So... it must seem like I am complaining but my love life is kinda dry and just waiting for a spark to come along. I know you girls out there understand, it's fine being single but sometimes you just want a boy to look at you or say something that just says "I don't know why your single" kinda thing..... anyways let me know what you think!

When listening to the radio, it is hard to find a song that is not portraying a love bird feel to it
For people in relationships it feels empowering, you know what they are talking about - you've experienced it and currently have it
But what about the singles?
Don't get me wrong, single has its perks and I don't regret being single but ... you always seem to wonder what it would be like to not be single for once
Relationships (I believe) allow you to experience a part of you that you never knew or could experience while being single
Think about it
Being single allows you to explore the confident, bravery, and trust that you put into yourself
However, a love relationship allows someone else to step in and (for the most part) improve those features
This significant other boots your confidence by telling you things you don't normally hear, they do activities that you don't usually do (allows you to be brave) and they also allow you to trust what they tell you
When listening to a love song, sometimes it does make me sad that I am not in that same place right now but then I think my time will come
My time will come when I am listening to that love song and I'll be that girl that that beautiful singer is singing about

Consistently Inconsistent

 I've certainly proven that I'm unable to regularly journal or blog. That I'm pulled to write when things are bad or awry or beyond my control, but rarely in a time where I feel joy, happiness or am at peace with things. We all know I'm here, journaling again, because I'm in my head. Feeling. Reflecting. Likely overthinking. As to be expected - consistently inconsistent.  I've been pushing myself for months now. Focusing on doing more, achieving more, earning more, finding more....always more . And I am so t i r e d. Somewhere along the way of trying to redefine myself and achieve goals I had set for myself, I lost sight of why I was doing things. What was motivating me. Why I set these goals. 

Tick Tock

Tick Tock Tick tock That's the sound I hear, every time I debate changing something. That's the sound I hear when I wonder if the work I'm doing is enough It's the sound I hear when I wonder how I can make a bigger, better impact It's the sound I hear when I question my purpose and abilities Tick Tock…Tick Tock…Tick Tock. Over and over, I hear that same sound. Am I ready for a car? A house? A family? Tick Tock.  Will I ever be?

Simplicity

I understand so many of us live incredibly busy lives.  I myself am a full-time university student, trying to keep my average above 70, hoping to start a new volunteering job, playing intramural sports at my university, and maintain my close relationship with my family, friends, and Wallee (inside joke/story! you know who you are).  I know of people that work two jobs, others that are in school full-time and working one or two jobs, and of course there are those that work full-time.  We all have our own additional stressors and troubles, which often cause us to become tense and uptight, moody, forlorn, wistful, nostalgic, and are simply draining mentally and emotionally. When I reflect on my life right now, I realize there are times I don't exactly enjoy it.  I'm not a fan of the way education is taught, graded, and judged and that often causes me displeasure in my studies.  Sometimes I just get run down, tired, and sick of all the pressure.  I'm sure man...
