Expectations: Maybe just a product of our society

There are things that we are expected to do in order to 'achieve'. Learn to walk, learn to drive as walking is no longer adequate, get a job, get a house due to becoming successful in chosen career, have family, teach them what we learnt and continue the cycle. Its an expectation, a norm.
If we fail we tell ourselves that we don't fit, were supposed to be able to do all this, because everyone else can, we must too.
But when I think about it, aren't we all the same. We take things and do it in our own ways. I've everyone raised their children the same way wouldn't we all have the same child, living the same life and doing the same job. What would happen then. Who would be a doctor? I guess we can call upon God and our parents to be our teacher but who will lead us. Individuality is essential.
We do things our own way, a we must only allow the people that allow us to be us in our lives.

Puzzle Pieces

I used to think that life was like a jigsaw puzzle. Find the piece that fits and place it down to connect it to the other pieces which makes up your life. But then when all pieces have been placed what happens then? Does your life cease to develop and somehow were supposed to be content that this is it, this is what I have and everything I am made up of.
That puzzle that is filled with everything you think you are begin to become lost as you develop it further. Each piece gets lost in a blur as you fill the rest of it. Piece after pieces being lost in this one big thing that is supposed to mean everything, your whole life, in one big image.

I don't want that, I don't want to frantically search for a piece that doesn't really fit and pretend that it looks perfect when I know it's not.

My puzzle pieces are going to stay just as that a piece that I will admire as its own. I can love each thing without having it place as a whole things. People can love more than just one thing. We can devote ourselves into a huge complex of irrational things, just because they matter to us, because we take pride and joy in them.

An introduction...

Do you ever get the feeling that your always alone and that secretly everyone is just waiting for you to fall even though you know they love you? These feelings are confusing and can change moments in just a few moments.

I'm writing on this blog as an expression of what is on my mind, whether its a photo, a post entry about my thoughts or recent things I have found or music or just something that has captured my mind set at a particular moment. Memorable or not. I think it help to express things inside you, there's something just so satisfying to find a simple media that expresses it. It's quite insane really how through all of the though, motions and feelings we experience everyday, only a handful of them were important enough to be remembered at the end of the day, and a select few able to be expressed in words, pictures, songs or items.

Yeah this is pretty deep but its a reflection of my mind, so really what else can it be... Our minds can do anything.

Its the small things in life that matter after all
