and then there's the rest....

There are things that matter. And then there's the rest. See when you are in the thick of things, that's all you can see. You can't see anything; you can think about anything else, you can't focus on anything else because whatever you are going through is all that matters. Once you get through and look back, you may have some feelings about the situation, it wasn't that big a deal, it wasn't that a big a deal in comparison to other things, and yes it was in fact a big f*&$in' deal.

When you look back, because hindsight is 20/20, you see that what you mattered most, didn't matter at all. So it now becomes a part of the rest. You realize the things that mattered then, may have helped you grow, but now it's just the rest. At that moment it seems like it's encompassing, but as time grows it becomes part of the rest.

There are the things that matter...and then there's the rest.

God Bless "the rest".
