lost

It's so hard to gain a little perspective. So many times, I'm stuck in the moment, in the now of it all. This is what I want right now. I'm so focused on the crack in the sidewalk that I fail to see the winding trail.

Attempting to see the bigger picture and gain a little "perspective" trims those mountains down to hills. Maybe what I want right now, isn't what's best for me in the long run. I mean, I know it's not. And when I put things into perspective it makes these times easier to handle.

Sometimes what you want and what's best for you fail to align. Probably more times than not.
