This was on this weeks Post Secrets and I stared at the contradiction in the simple sentence. It summed up the contradiction of all my feelings I have been having lately. I wish the people who have hurt me are so miserable and guilty. I wish that they got up everyday like I get up everyday, wondering where they went wrong and wishing they could be a better person. I wish they could suffer as much as I am. I wish guilt followed them around like a bad habit.
But then...I think, I reflect. I want them to be happy, because I want to be happy. I'm supposed to hate them, but I couldn't imagine something bad happening to them. I want them to do well in everything that they dream of, I want God to bless them with lives that are unharmed and bless them with the gift of love and acceptance.
This is all one big contradiction, and not everyone can have that perfect happiness, because so many people suffer in this world for different reasons. I don't want to be why they suffer. I want them to forget about me and go on to a great life. If only life were that easy right?
Jason Mraz's You and I Both:
Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me
Oh things are gonna happen naturally
Oh taking your advice I'm looking on the bright side
And balancing the whole thing But often times those words get tangled up in lines
And the bright lights turn to night
Until the dawn it brings
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me
