Don't Believe Everything You Hear

             If you love something let it go,
“If it comes back to you, that's when you know," "All good things must come to an end." Are you serious? Why do you have to let go of something you love? If I love something I want as much of it as possible, right?  It seems that these phrases that have been adopted into our everyday lingo have suddenly become the answers to our problems. They've ultimately become the guidance for the weak-minded. As a stubborn person (I know there are more out there), I know that when I'm asking for advice or talking about "feelings," I don't need a phrase I saw stitched in needlepoint as a response. The main reason these phrases and saying bother me is because they try to make everyone's problems common. Every person, problem, situation is unique in its own dynamic, and to make it seem like this happens to everyone is unfair.

We can have "the best of both worlds," yet we "can't have our cake and eat it too?"

If "Actions speak louder than words," then what do you say to the people that "wear their hearts on their sleeves"? Or to the parents that instruct their kids to "Do as I say, not as I do"?

If "Every cloud has a silver lining," then how come "When it rains, it pours?"

If we're told "A person is known by the company he keeps," yet "not to judge a book by its cover," which one do we choose?

If "Oil and water don't mix," then why do "opposites attract"?

And if "All good things come to those who wait," then why be the early bird and get the worm?

What should we believe... ?

  1. Live by what you feel in your heart that is right. Is the way i look at life. Be positive and look always for the good in everyone. Which is another saying in a sense.
