“Who am I living for”?

             I am stealing the title of this post from a Katy Perry song; yeah I know its gay but whatever.  

                 Anyway I feel I need to say something about my recent break up.  For the ones that read this and know me best you will know that I am not usually affected by a break up, other than the normal 3 day period of self pity I allow myself.  For some reason, (that I am currently unaware of this time) I feel emptier than I should, and I think that is why I try to find comfort in Katy Perry. 

               The song “Who am I living for” asks a very simple question; who are you living for?  I used to live for my girlfriend, sacrificing all that I could to make her happy.  Well that would have been fine if she wasn’t a complete fake that ended up lying to me and her family.  Sorry I’m not here to rant.  The point I am trying to make here is that if you are going to love someone and put faith in them and live for them, be prepared to get crushed by them.  I guess I’m trying to say that I have learned a valuable lesson here, don’t live for another person, live for yourself or God, and personally I say that you could trust God more than you could your own self.
