Today that song has to be my mantra. Positive in the negative must be seen and I have to take my own advice. Sometimes I’m really annoying! Don’t hold grudges, keep calm and go with the flow, everything the will work out the way it’s supposed to…
Hang on, I have to go give myself the finger in the mirror.
Okay, now that that’s over, back to Mick and his lyrics. The line that follows, “you can’t always get what you want,” is, “but if you try sometimes well you might find, you get what you need.” And I think he has a valid point.
Because most of the time when life isn’t all sunshine and unicorn farts like I want it to be, something good comes out of the swamp piss and gorilla puke that I’m wading through.
Like currently. I don’t want to have another surgery, be “alone”, or miss vacation with my parents because I need an emergency capsulectomy. But as I said before, princess problems.
I’m not five years old and I can’t sit in a mud puddle and stomp my feat and pout, even though I’d like to.
I have to just shut the fuck up and look for the silver lining. Because most of the time, when I don’t get what I want, I do get what I need.
Thanks Mick. I’ll stop scowling at myself in the mirror and turn your song on now…
