Hell no...I feel like I've been working towards atleast fufilling the goals I set for myself as an artist and a creative...

But I will admit that I am happy that I got this wall street job, cause at 30 years of age I've already had it in the back of my mind that I may not succeed at being a musician and in fashion and need a realistic source of money. Which this will be.

Obviously we all need to work in order to live. Having hobbies that you love is definitely a positive way of fulfilling one's drive for accomplishment and happiness. IMO at least. I think more people need to have outlets that push their creative boundaries.

:salute:

Advice I would also give would be to stay off Twitter and Facebook for a minute because when you're looking at your peers or friends posting stats about how great their lives are because they found their future husband/wife, New job promotion, lavish vacation, or whatever. You're gonna subconsciously compare your life to that person and that will leave you miserable

All I do is go to work, come home, sleep, and then go back to work in a repetitive schedule...this shyt got me like :mindblown:

Before I took this semester off from college it was a similar thing with school. I don't feel like I'm even living

I know there's gotta be more to to life than this.

Yuuuuuuuppp...

I signed on to the "Go to church, fall in love, get married and forget the world" bs.
So I have my little 9-5, my kid, 2 cars and a mortgage.
Same day...day in...day out...
Sometimes I don't even feel anything anymore.
I fkn hate it...
Most days I hate life and want to run my car into a fkn wall at 80mph or suicide by cop.
But I know I'm not that lucky. I'll end up a paraplegic or vegetable and still be alive and suffering.

Trent Reznor said it best with the Nine Inch Nails song "Every Day is Exactly the Same"

--->
I believe I can see the future
Cause I repeat the same routine
I think I used to have a purpose
But then again
That might have been a dream
I think I used to have a voice
Now I never make a sound
I just do what I've been told
I really don't want them to come around

Oh, no

[Chorus:]
Every day is exactly the same
Every day is exactly the same
There is no love here and there is no pain
Every day is exactly the same

I can feel their eyes are watching
In case I lose myself again
Sometimes I think I'm happy here
Sometimes, yet I still pretend
I can't remember how this got started
But I can tell you exactly how it will end

[Chorus]

I'm writing on a little piece of paper
I'm hoping someday you might find
Well I'll hide it behind something
They won't look behind
I'm still inside here
A little bit comes bleeding through
I wish this could have been any other way
But I just don't know, I don't know what else I can do
 

You Win Perfect

thats why so many people are miserable, too busy in other people's shyt and worried about how others perceive them. go do something productive instead of postin your daily activites all over the internet. social media really irks me.

but as far as OP. i've been there, but gotta set goals everyday and work towards a more meaningful existence.

Traveling and vacations are two different things. Traveling is about exploration, danger, adventure, discovery, edification, perspective(as oppose to always looking within, mind&soul, which is limiting) etc. I've found real Hades while traveling - makes our "Hades" look like child's play. And If you think this is Hades you would really benefit from the perspective you get from traveling. What you described is a vacation yes (you're seeking comfort, safety etc.). The ethos of traveling is completely different.

well put

Find a passion. Every fukking month until the day you die, you should be trying something new that you've never done before.

Do you have a goal or bucket list? Go make one and start attacking them.


I am close to accomplishing one of my random goals which is to date/fukk a female tattoo artist for free tattoos. I mean my list is that fukking random :manny:

Let's say someone asked you to restart your life right now, what would you be doing with your time? The answer to that question is exactly what you need to be doing right now.
