Hey, there,
So. Here it is. 16.
I mean, it's great and all, what with all my life experiences and happiness. Just wish I could throw a Sweet 16 and not get ridiculed... or broke.

You see, not sure if you've picked up the idea from some of my other posts, but I am generally a "the-grass-is-always-greener-on-the-other-side" type of person, in shorter terms, I am a naturally a jealous person.
This can be quite a problem, often when one of my friends shares an achievement or other happy event in their lives. I always feel happy for them, and then a sharp pang of longing for their happiness sets in. That is always one of the most painful feelings for me. You know. The "What-could've-been" feeling. I absolutely hate that feeling.
I would love to be 16 the way I want to be 16. I wanted to throw a big party, with a lot of friends, a big celebration. But I don't have that many friends, unfortunately. Wish I did, but that's just not realistic.
Some nights I'll stay up, just looking at the ceiling, wondering what a life would be like without jealousy. That would be a nice life. In the end, I'll just have to learn to be satisfied with what I possess, though. I can want and wish my way through life, or I could work through it. Even then, I might not get my dream whatever.
Do you have any longing feelings that hold you back from happiness?
Let me know in the comments below!
And, as always,
Thanks for reading!
