dead end

It's really annoying when you want to do something and scream out something...but you don't have the rights to.

You can't tell your friend to pick another sweater color for her dog because it's not your dog. You can't tell your neighbor to grow a rose instead of lilies because it's not your garden. You simply don't have the rights. They will look down at you and think you're crazy instead. You can't force them to keep growing roses for the rest of their lives, or at least until you move out of the neighborhood. What are you going to say to them? "Please keep growing roses while I'm still here, but you can do whatever you want when I'm gone" ?

But then how long will they have to wait?

And who says they have to wait, anyway?

How many times can a person be selfish in one lifetime ?

So let them go; if they want to grow lilies instead, let them. You're nobody; you're just a neighbor. You don't get a say in this. You don't have the right to voice your opinion, no matter how much it is disturbing you.

Especially since you still have no idea when you're gonna move out of that neighborhood.
