Failure

Hey guys!

Sorry I haven't written for a while. I actually drafted a post about being cynical but it was way too dark and personal for me to post it. If I find time, I'll try tone it down and make it more readable for everyone. Although if don't really, don't be surprised.


MAYBE I'L JUST DO IT WHEN I'M DRUNK WHO KNOWS?!

Its good be writing again. Firstly, everyone enjoyed Andrea's post to the point where they went out of their way to tell me. I mean, I don't know whether to be pleased by this, or be insulted.

But seriously Andrea, thanks for writing a post for me.

Quite a few of you guys want to write one as well... yeah, I don't know if that's going to happen. I mean, it'd be really cool if I got my friends to write and it be like this massive collaboration thing.

Whilst writing it, I did come up with an idea to write a post about failure. I failed, something I set up to do a long time ago. I mean it was an on going thing and it was slowly coming but in the end I still didn't feel great about it.

We don't set out to do something, expecting the only outcome to be failure. If we did, we wouldn't try. We do however, try and set out to do something with very low chance of success and reward. For all the reasons in the world against, somethings just has to be done in your eyes.

In those situation we close our eyes from those reason and push for success. Every sign is there to stop, every sign is there to go away and hang it all up but there are somethings that needs to be done.

There are somethings and some people you place above others. As much as it is irrational, you know it is important enough to keep trying, no matter how fruitless it seems.

But sometimes, no matter how hard you try, no matter how hard you push, you don't always get what you want. Sometimes things just don't happen as you expect them to. Sometimes, events just conspire against you.

Sometimes people are just morons. (then you realise they're you're friends, I mean...)

Then, you realise, maybe the world was rational for a reason and in this case you were just plain wrong.

Which is sobering. Why are somethings so important to you and none of your friends, or no one else? Why is something so important to you, that you're willing to defy everyone and all common sense, when everyone else is willing to do nothing about it.

You literally go, what the hell is wrong with me. Why was I the only arrogant one who thinks I can defy what everyone else thinks?
