If I keep things to myself any longer, I might shed years off my life from being such a miserable prick. Every day I'm trying to fix me, but I'm tired man. I can't help but wonder if this is a normal sensation, are we all going through it, is it our generation, or is it just me.

I have been off of social media for a solid few years, I remember when any time I had a good hair day, I had a reason to post a selfie. Now I'm like....fuck you. Fuck all of you. I couldn't even tell you where that shift happened, it wasn't a singular instance, I'm not traumatized by anything. It's the classic death by a thousand paper cuts, and I think if I didn't have family love around me I might be fucked emotionally and mentally.

So what do you do when you're aware that life sucks right now, but it's not permanent, you know it's not, and you know it will get better one day, but that day may not be today or tomorrow or even this year?

I normalized the feeling until it kind of took over, so we're back here at square one saying nah this ain't chill mate we have more power than that... It's also fascinating how one empowering thought and a deep breath changes your perspective even for a split second, isn't it..

What is it that heals a person, when they're too tired to find healing?

Here's a poem I guess, for you, whoever reads this.

Today might suck And tomorrow will too And you're feeling stuck And it won't go away soon But I think that's life, We have to battle through, Literally get up And make your body move There will be better days Better than they used to be Because you're on your way To setting yourself free It's just a mental cage, But you have got the key So open that shit up And come along with me Love you.

There is no actual, tangible reason why we allow people to starve, to be homeless, to suffer and die needlessly. Food is plentiful. Empty homes are plentiful. Medicine is plentiful. It’s hidden away behind constructs and we pretend those constructs mean something. There is an empty home and a homeless family, give them it. There is a sick child and common medicine to treat it, give it to them. There is a starving person and so much food wasted by corporations or hidden behind a dollar sign, feed them.

The next time they tell you Americans are “happy” with their employer provided health insurance remember that that “happiness” is fueled by willful ignorance of what the alternatives are really like and fear of losing what little crappy health care they currently have.

"'I have led a toothless life,' he thought. 'A toothless life. I have never bitten into anything. I was waiting. I was reserving myself for later on--and I have just noticed that my teeth have gone. What's to be done?'"

-Jean-Paul Sartre, The Age of Reason (1945)
