Thank you @rsbosse!
Right? I think this is something that when properly articulated is actually a pretty widely spread feeling among our generation... Some will just be like "whatever just relax, chill and relax", but they're also the ones who are gonna get hit the hardest by the coming changes...
Working at H&M and McDonald's ain't a way to live a life... What to do when that's the only thing left around to do? Just keep doing that and drinking and partying for ever?
It's a trap
Haha, right?! Stopped drinking a few days ago and stopped smoking about ten days ago after too long. Not sure how long but it literally felt like a trap and was going to kill me. So I decided to take back my power. I've come to a place where even if things don't crumble living this way makes me happier. And that's what I am after nowadays. Now being happy to me isn't ignoring anything. Oh on the contrary, but for the first time in my life I feel like I am following what I am meant to do. It truly boggles me how folks can meander through the day not aware of what's happening around them but then again the average football broadcast is 3 hours long, the game itself is 60 minutes, there are actually a little over 11 minutes of actual football action played in those sixty minutes and then all throughout approximately 100 hundred commercials are broadcast.... wow. The struggle is real, but we need to keep fighting. I have kids and refuse to be complicit in handing a world worse off to them. Thanks a bunch!
Good on you!
I'm not a fan of drinking.. I gave up weed since I moved to China. I've been off it for about a year. But I still smoke cigarettes... That's my main vice these days...
Even when I feel good, am well rested, eating healthy, doing exercise... I still feel I need that "reward".. Even though cigarettes fucking suck... But I guess I still feel they bring something to my life...
Hopefully I will be able to put them down forever soon.
I periodically try to go for several days without it, and go running instead..
I think I have the right approach.. I'll get over them.
Omg your point about football lol. Forget about it!
I can't get behind the modern gladiator stuff... But then again, without hip hop and my music I'd go crazy and probably resort to stuff like that to forget...
The world is stresssful these days.. I know why people just want to stick their head under the ground like an ostrich... But that's not gonna fix anything!
Gotta keep striving!
You're welcome, and seriously, it's me thanking you!
Peace n love xx
