Hey Fool,
If you’re having a miserable time you haven’t been playing with what you’ve got.
Yesterday, while I was driving home listening to sad nostalgic music because F**k it- I wanna feel something, it hit me.
Not literally, I ducked that pigeon and heroically quick at that. But figuratively, I had a realization.
The best time of my life was the age of foolishness.
I wasn’t coming up with bullshit reasons of why I couldn’t have a good time, enjoy myself, or do all the things I wanted to.
All I was focused on was playing with what I had, the life I had.
If you NEED to be with others to enjoy a certain activity, it ain’t it Jack.
Hows that quote go, youth is wasted on the young? I think we convince ourselves that distractions are the “play” when in reality, that’s why you’re empty inside. #EdgarAllanPOET
If you need to run towards frenzy you’re not living, you’re escaping.
I thought because I’m extroverted, time-wasting with motherf**kers I could barely tolerate was the only way for me to be alive. I’d hate them and hate myself for being around them, but it was a temporary way to numb the pain and I didn’t want to be alone. Luckily, I was wrong. Those retiring low energy unambitious 20-somethings are not apart of my life.
Don’t blame others for your unhappiness and don’t get pissed off at them because you’re using them for something they’re not (your toys).
Why haven’t you been playing? Whatever you think is stopping you, it isn’t. I’m sure of that. It’s actually so simple, you almost have stupid to understand it.
The thing you do for yourself, on the side, that little activity that kinda does it for you- that’s it. That’s where you need to start.
If you don’t have it, play towards it.
