Are you living the life you want to, Yea Forums?
No, but if I work hard I will be
i try but too hard
I don't dream anymore
I spent my whole life saying to myself that it'll get better once I do X or get Y which is no doubt bullshit, so i've relinquished all control and am just letting the ship steer itself wherever it intends to go
>Are you living the life you want to, Yea Forums?
Yes, which is pretty fucking depressing.
No. I'm 31, I was unable to break into the field I studied for and I'm basically just riff raff now. After a psychotic break I'm unable to do anything of much value either as my IQ went down by 22+ points and I have the intelligence of a potato now.
No. The fact that i don't know what i want doesn't help either
Not yet but I'm only 20
I've given up any hope of being published and earning a living from writing. At least now I can write purely. I'm going to do my utmost to write my book and then I hope I will die when I am finished.

Which field? Same thing happened to me.
I'm working my way there. Meanwhile, shit sucks, man. Fuck this world, man. Can' take it no more.
Yes
After being sincere with myself, i came to the conclusion that the only thing i care about is philosophy and the understanding of being.
So if i still have time to read and think and write im still living the life i really want. I may have other desires, as most men have, desires of wealth and women and power, but i dont want them that much to pursue them so i dont really care about them
yes
i that image gets me everytime
Nice post user. I agree.
I have never shed myself of my boyish desires. I want to be a sailer, I want be a soldier, I want to be a pilot, I want to be stranded on an island, I want to be an Antarctic researcher, I want to be a lineman, I want to be a diver. I’m pursuing several of these at a time and I know that I will never reach any of my romantic ideals
pretty close if i can get disability
fuck no i've been shitting in plastic bags and eating canned goods for the last six months
No I want to be making mirthful picaresque comedy films in the tradition of Wojciech Has, Mizoguchi and Tarkovsky but it just seems impossible. Yea Forums is terrible now so I’ve been coming on here more. Lately all I’ve been doing is reading meditations on the tarot and a reprint of the original 1611 King James Bible and smoking weed and playing video games while listening to Kantbots podcast. Most of the time I genuinely believe I will make it. In fact a couple years ago I heard an angel whispering through a window telling me I could do it, but that was back when I wanted to be a rap star.

kinda this as well for me. I understand that it's "natural" to have intakes and clinging desires as I work and live in this world. I have accepted that one cannot be at the same time an office guy, a student, a writer, lover and monk; as I have strived to be. Sure, I do still try; but I don't longer see myself as "chosen", but rather the times we live in as chosen, offering so much access to information, freedom and travel. And I try to cherish those things, to stay even if 100 things tell me to leave but one keeps me in place. I came to understand the sacrifice is at the core of our being; and if we do not "crucify" our desires properly, we cannot even hope to stay in those spaces where the light shines. I take upon myself this mantle of woe gladly; for at first, we always give others from what we have; later though, we begin giving them that which we are
I get to read things I like and work on mathematics, so I guess I'm.
No my life ended December of last year.
I believe I caused myself irreparable brain damage and had a breakdown.
Used to have dreams now I'm just filling the gap between each day and the one of my death with entertainment, work and whatever socializing my poor skills allow.
If I'm lucky I'll get cancer or my heart will fail by the age of 60, maybe I'll die first in some accident, it's not so rare these days, people die prematurely all the time.
I just have to make sure I don't get too attached to people or fall in love, that would be a shame.
But I wouldn't count on that, not considering the way I am.
the best way to get a good job is through nepotism
prove this wrong (you cannot)
Not really, I have noticed that I don't really enjoy doing things and I don't know how to achieve this state of not doing anything while still being alive. I enjoy passively being in beautiful surroundings, everything else is a distraction. Unfortunately you need to do something to stay alive.
I guess life isn't all its cracked up to be
if you mean by ingratiating yourself with those in high positions then yes
No, because it's absurd and illegal. I'm getting by, however.
start NOW. RIGHT NOW.

IT/CS
What an American idea. Of course not, no one does. The most part of becoming an adult is learning where you can compromise and what you cannot
>shitting in plastic bags
why?
He must be hiding
Nah, I'm this guy:
