why is everything not like you imagined it?

becus everything in life is pumped to be more than is really is. take for instance commercials, they make you believe that if you eat a certain chocolate bar, your true love will appear. if you eat mentos you will become this person with super powers somehow. soap operas have people coming down to dinner in tuxedos. The movies have the person always getting their love in the end. No one portrays life as it really is and so we feel disappointed with reality.

Nothing has happened like I had thought it would happen, further proving that what I thought I wanted and needed wasn't really what I needed.\n\nExample: in my dreams I would graduate, become a famous journalist, marry the man of my dreams, and move to NYC. \n\nWhat really happened: I graduated from college in 3.5 years after having a baby, being hospitalized, transferring schools, planning a wedding oh and losing three family members. I married a man who is BEYOND the man of my dreams, I don't live in NYC, and I'm not a journalist. I'm a full time mom.\n\nBut you know what? I'm not upset. Things are working out just as they are supposed to.

anything can happen, in some far off place, some bizar thing could happen, we cant see everything that is going on

Are you crazy, I'm married and I think I'm having a fantasy about you right now! It's only natural to think about other things, or other people. That's the great thing about imagination.

Maybe it use to be shaped like a diamond, and maybe we did just put so much thought and energy into it being round that it became that way. Maybe we are not even living on the world that we think we are living on. Maybe we are all just part of some big atmospheric mind of some sort. Maybe we really are nothing but a dream, who knows.

i see it as (having never heard it before) after moving into a new house you never really want to find places for everything so you just kind of live out of a box, ie keep all your stuff in boxes all the time\n\ni could also see it as kind of the way i am,  when you think outside of the box you are thinking in different ways than normal,  my brain is kind of wired that way and it is a more constant thing for me so i guess i am living out side of the box, not just leaving every once and a while

It feels different for everyone. Many things can change the way it feels..It's a hard thing to describe..

different life experiences give different perspectives for each individual.\n\nfor being so much alike, we're all so very different in how we interpret that grand thing called "LIFE".

We're all extraordinary in our own ways... it's often that we don't see it in ourselves... I think of my life as completely normal and ordinary but when I describe some of the things I've done people seem to be impressed:-\n\nClimbed the highest mountains in three different countries;\nBummed round Europe sleeping rough on park benches and in railway stations;\nFirst member of my family ever to graduate with a science degree;\nSaved my wife's life by diagnosing appendicitis when we were in the Arctic;\nStarted my own business

Because everyone is the same. We all want the world to revolve around us but it just doesnt. Sometimes things dont go the way you want or sometimes people dont do things and react in the way you want its just life. \nInstead of getting on this vibe you should think about the times when you feel loved, happy and enjoying life. Because lifes a box of chocolates.

The grass is always greener on the other side. Sometimes we take what we have for granted. Did you ever hear the expression "You don't know what you have until it's gone"? It's true. Then, you get what you thought you wanted, and you want what you had.
