Cliché. Cliché. Cliché.

Am I the only one who feels like clichés are tiring and irrelevant most of the time?  I feel life they just cushion us from the harshness of whatever it is we're experiencing. Nobody ever throws in the "Everything happens for a reason" line after receiving awesome news... But the moment those news are bad,  there's a reason.

That then throws out luck and chance completely. If there's a reason behind every single thing that happens in life, then I must say, life is pretty calculated and I was never ready. Nothing just happens, just nje? Ever? I was never ever ready.

We use these lines to make one another feel better. Lie to one another and move on because nobody wants to stay in a bad mood longer than they should. So believing that there is a bigger lesson to come out of an experience just gives you something to hope towards, instead of hovering over the disaster of the situation you are in.

I'm an in-this-moment sort of person so if you tell me not to worry, that there's a bigger plan and stuff, you're probably speaking to yourself and I'm thinking how sucky the situation is. Or how cool it would be to be drunk. I. Am. Kidding. 

No. I'm. Not.

Sometimes I do get caught up in the stuff I've certified cliché, I won't lie. It serves as some sort of home remedy. You know how home remedies are, used because they are tried and trusted, will probably not make a difference but at least they don't make you worse, and everyone thinks they are better than the real solution-seeing a qualified doctor.

If I had to invent my own line, I'd say- Live. Now. Let the problems worry about themselves, some will fall away, some are real, but neither of them are made less by worrying.

Did I just contradict myself? I want tea.

Don't do that getting drunk stuff. Not cool.

Calm down to:

Speak soon my lovelies,
