A step-by-step process

Everything is such a process.. Putting on your face, making friends.. Getting over someone you once loved. But by the end of the process, you're happy with the results right? That's the point isn't it.. To work at it and go through all the steps until you're happy with it? Well I've been working really hard. I've gone through all the steps: sadness, hurt, anger.. Now I'm at indifference. I feel like I'm close to the end. Just a little more time and I'll be okay. |

I am the seeker

"There are as many kinds of beauty as there are habitual ways of seeking happiness." -Baudelaire
The rose bushes in the backyard are podding. Even though this is their time of rebirth, they look deader than they've probably looked all winter. A torn petal, fading color, covered in cobwebs.. It's springtime; that unhappy and somewhat grotesque-looking thing is the seed, the start of life. I suppose, the way I'm looking at it, that's where the beauty is for me.
I'm seeking happiness after all that happened, but it hasn't really come to me yet. I thought I might have been doing something wrong (actually I was pretty sure I was doing several things wrong), but if that rose pod can contain beauty, then maybe there is no right or wrong..
I just have to learn patience and trust in myself. |
