>>7895563i’ve met so many people with vices. they’re killing themselves. this is why i don’t want to drink; i don’t want to indulge in the escapism that things like that provide. that’s what i think a lot of people with addictive personalities struggle with. they deaden themselves as a means of escaping life, escaping who they are. it’s sad, but i think i get it. even escapism sublimates into the inertia of routine in its own way. only difference being that it’s unhealthy and largely unproductive.
there’s always so much more to be done. it smears and blends together.
“Life’s a blur. Pay attention when you’re happy.”
My dad used to tell me that.
“I was holding you as a baby just yesterday. That was yesterday!”
yeah, that’s pretty true.
no matter what comes your way, you’re not really going to want it in the end. the times you’re happy are mostly removed from whatever it is you’re doing on a daily basis. at least that’s how it is for me
