THE SANTABLOG SERIES
DAY 18

You are important, every last one of you.
People don’t realise that they are actually truely important, everyone is important. You are all important to someone, that goes without saying but the important I mean is the one where you matter, you are special.
So many people think they aren’t, that’s the thing, myself included most of the time.
I know that feeling where you just think you are just another cog in the machine, just a thing, there to provide, there just to keep the wheel moving.
Just there
Remember this, every cog in the machine is important, if one cog is missing the whole machine comes to a halt. So in that sense, yes you are important. The thing is we all want to be special and important and wanted by someone.
It’s a human instinct to just be wanted, everyone is needed at many aspects of their life but being needed isn’t being wanted is it?
People confuse need with want.
I’d rather be wanted than needed. Needed is something you can’t cope without, if you need something you can’t do without it.
Needed isn’t wanted and being wanted is something I need, I don’t want to be needed I need to be wanted. Simple as that.
No no no, I’ve explained it isn’t the same thing.
Feeling wanted is an amazing feeling, to be wanted isn’t a human instinct, being wanted is pure, it’s a step way beyond the feeling of need. To be wanted means you are actually wanted, you get what I’m saying?
Ok I’ll stop being a dictionary, but you get what I mean right?
Anyway, many people only feel needed, needed to keep the house afloat, needed to bring the money home to pay the bills and keep food on the table, needed to reach the top shelf or needed to make someone feel good about themselves or someone needs a pee. You see where I’m getting g at here, right?
I need you in my life.
I want you in my life.
Need sounds more passionate, but it’s more desperate.
Want is actually more passionate, maybe a desperate passion.
People need the feeling of being wanted. Wanted is a passion, its more personal.
You can either need to live or you can want to live, very very big difference.
You can need someone in your life or you can want someone in your life, to want someone in your life is a choice, to need someone isn’t a choice.
Many people just don’t feel wanted and that’s the first slip off the stone into that deep chasm of depression, then at that deep chasm is a bottomless pit of pure depression, not a nice place to be trust me.
Yeah, I may be rambling on a little, but hey it’s my blog so my words from my brain.
Yes, some of you may have guessed it, I’m in the bath and my mind is wandering once again (refer to previous blogs for clarity, I do my best thinking in the bath, all chilled out and quiet and stuff) the only real me time I get to have.
I mean I don’t need you all, as my readers, I’d be writing all this shit whether you beautiful people read it or not, but I want you, I want you to read my shit and I want you to enjoy my words and I want you to keep coming back.
Basically what I’m trying to say is tell your loved ones how much you want them in your life and tell the deep in love ones how much you want want them, if you get my drift, it makes a difference.
Tell everyone important in your life how much you want them. Trust me they need to hear it, I mean shit come on we all do don’t we? We all need that little bit of extra reassurance, it’s the only way we feel wanted and not just needed.
