I feel like we're all in this together. No one really knows what they want or how they're going to get it. They just know what they get and decide if it's what they want later on.

And that's why we're all here with broken hearts and empty glasses. Somewhere, somehow along the way things got mixed up.

So we hate the past and we can't reel the future in fast enough. Ironically, because of this we often pass up the best things life has to offer or scare them away because we're chomping at the bit for the next best thing.

We move on, looking forward but never right where we are. We anticipate the next big event and rush everything else along to get there. And before you know it, it's gone. And you're left with a strange feeling. Not one of disappointment or regret - but a bittersweet nostalgic emotion that tears you apart from the inside out.

Not everything turns out as we expect. But in the end you have to have a sense of camaraderie because we're all here in the same sinking ship. We're all hoping that the next person we meet, or the next place we go will have something to keep this vessel alive.
