When I noticed that my life once again threatened to shrink into greyness, I got worried. I hated the thought of pale and gloomy days stretching on for months on end. You see, I've had days when I felt like the last person on earth, cooped up in my room, my cellphone steadfastly silent, with nothing to do but sit down and feel time pass.

Recently, that threat had come knocking on my door once again and I feared that it may be the beginning of another boring spell. But, I have been fortunate to have good friends around me. Just when I was about to fall over the edge of my sanity, they manage to pull me back up. It's amazing, really, how most of us manage to neglect the little things that matter.

So far, my year has been a treat. Sure there have been times when I was bored out of my wits and I was mind-numbingly depressed (yes, it happens), but then there's always something of interest that would make the next day more than just bearable. And that something would often spell the difference between 'a little more bearable' and 'pretty fucking awesome'.

I have come to appreciate the fun in my life, even the petty dramas. Yes. Whether I'm living my life in orgasmic happiness or desperate sadness, the point is that I'm living it with other people around and not by myself. It's not black, not white, not even boring grey. It's my life in full, badass, technicolor mode, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
