Simple Math

No matter what life throws at us we can either do one of two things, either a.) Face it head on and live with whatever the consequence is. Or B.) Let it hit the floor and debate to pick up the pieces and gluing it back together. Now i've always been the type to let it fall. And procrastinate until it was finally time for me deal with the problem. But as i've grown older i've grown to realize that i should just face everything head on and deal with the issues that ensue. Regardless of the outcome. And that i should then respect and know it was MY personal choice to do what i did.

It's just common knowledge that if something is wrong, we should try to fix it. But i've noticed for a lot of things we never do give it the effort they desire. We simply just could care less. We've grown to accept things that are wrong and try not to fix it because we are lazy. And if we do face that problem we might be a complete and utter Ass about it. And make ourselves look stupid or try to get into a fight. Simply because we put it off so long that it could have rotted inside you until it finally just burst.

As i sit here thinking about this stuff i can only think of Manchester Orchestra's new song - Simple Math. It talks about how we at times do things because its an in the moment thing. And how we can be wrong and no one will stop you. And it's all a simple thing. It's as simple as we not caring about other people, AND our own desire of things. We WANT (not need) things sometimes so bad when the opportunity turns up we take it. And we could care less about the outcome of either us nor whoever else is involved.






By the way this is my new favorite song. But yeah we should start realizing how our actions don't just effect us but they can also effect those around us. And that goes for every little action. From taking a pen from someone, to something as drastic as killing someone. Everything one does has an action, but the issue is who will it effect? It will effect Friends who've always been there for you. And Family who loved you and supported every single decision in your life. Don't hurt those who care about you. So do the right thing. And live a good life...
