Thinking

It’s been a while since I wrote here. I’ve had many adventures since my last posts, good ones, and bad ones. But most of all I’ve been trying to figure out that all illusive “meaning of life”. Life…..we all thought it was easy peasy. As kids you grow up with this I can conquer anything attitude. When does it slip away? Was it when you realized you had to pay for that nice watch by yourself…but wait!…you also have to pay rent, and feed yourself! Choices…. They seem so trivial now. That dilemma has a clear solution. The true art of life is finding the balance between working, hobbies, cool watches, housing, feeding yourself, and taking proper care of your body. Even now…..still not in the right order….and missing some things. Where is the fun?

Looking at my parents seemingly having things somewhat together I wonder; “How long did it take you to get your stuff together, you have it all figured out”! Little do you realize they don’t. Neither does anyone you think has their “stuff” together, it is all a facade. We are all illusions of what we want to be. Why do we feel like we have to be this mask? This mask gains trust, yes, gives people confidence in investing in your “product” or whatever your selling. In the end we are all sales men, and women, selling the idea of “us” to get something we want. All these thoughts make my head spin, and wish I was just back to being that child, where things were simple and straight forward. I want to explore myself and the world, without the illusions of grandeur, masks, and social groupings imprinted upon us.

Freedom….that is the ultimate goal

What is freedom to you?
