The monotony of this day-to-day. The exact same thing only different. Oh, what a shame it is to live a life that just repeats. Never getting anywhere, only where you have always been. To live like this, is like listening to the slow tick tock of a clock that never moves. How do people survive this, or are we surviving at all? Is there a way to change this ever bore that has become my life or should I just accept the fate of the same day again and again? The only thing that changes is each day I am older, but still stuck on the hamster wheel of life.
