Of two minds

So mostly I am content with my current circumstances and routines, but a small part of me pangs for more, such as one or two friends, new relationships, something to strive for.

Am I just being naive?

  • I feel like this often. I've accepted who I am finally and can continue with life happy in that knowledge, yet sometimes thoughts creep in that I am still isolated and I should be doing more to fix that. I'll resolve to work at it, don't really do anything, then go back to normal where the cycle starts again.

    I would like to think it's not naive and that, with enough time and effort, it is possible to change for the better. Maybe the issue is the amount of work it just involves, because it will take a lot of effort for me to make a significant change. I can do it, I have done in the past, but it's always a challenge and I'd need to be in the right frame of mind to take it on.
