Happy

in box •  6 years ago 

I scroll through pictures and videos of people on social media portraying happiness look at me I’m at the club surrounded by all these people but are You truly happy. I just had a child don’t get me wrong being a father/mother to a human is amazing gift but are you doing it to make him and her stay and give yourself that sense of happiness that you think you need,the sense of this is what I’m supposed to do at this time because I’m and how much I hate saying this term adulting. This is what is recognized as being an adult getting a piece of paper that shows my devotion and love for my significant other and spending tons of money on a event to try to out do John and Janes wedding inviting people who you barely see or they barely socialize with you to this celebration of so called love. I don’t know maybe I have been going about my life the wrong way maybe I’m not adulting properly. You know what I say to that fuck You and fuck your box I lived my life to the fullest yes sometimes I get down and depressed that I should of done this or that but then I look back at all the stuff I have gotten to experience and do and I can say. I am satisfied with the way my life is I was raised in a bad neighborhood in North Philadelphia was told over and over that I would prob die from street violence before I turn 26. Guess what I survived I made it because I didn’t fall for the box they wanted to put me in I made my own path carved my own destiny.
