Getting Things into Perspective

Sometimes it takes a trip to the beach to put things into perspective. I am the first one to admit that I don�t like the beach much. First there is the heat, lots and lots of sand (I hate sand, it gets everywhere ).

I wasn't going to go but my sister's boyfriend invited me and I didn't have the heart to say no. So I decided to go.
The day was like any other here in Puerto Rico. Clear skies and the sun shinning @ a million degrees.

As the hours ticked by I sat there thinking how boring my life has been the past couple of years. I've been hiding from people.... ignored my friends, and have been really depressed. Funny thing is I don�t know why ive been depressed in the first place.

As we were leaving I watched the sunset and felt the breeze hit my face as I looked at the ocean. I was thinking why have I put my life on hold? Why have I been hiding in my house.....gluing myself to my computer monitor? That�s no way to live.

I decided I have to start living again. Take my finger of the pause button and press play.

Anyways I wrote this because I felt I had to get this off my chest. Thanx for listening.

When I first read this I thought this guy is so lucky to live in Puerto Rico but every place has their problems.

Many people have gone through what you describe and I know some of them.

Be happy for you realize something is wrong and that something is coming. Many will not know until it hits them and it is too late.

Thanx for your kind words neo.

Today must be the day for this..it's just got to be the moon in some strange aspect or something
