It's time for things that are big and blue
So I'm sure most of you who are reading this are aware that I haven't made a post for the last few months. I've been studying for the 2nd level CFA exam. I won't go into too many details, but all I'll say is that I studied A LOT. But, as of last Saturday, I'm done studying for it. The first half of the exam wasn't that bad, but the 2nd half was brutal. I don't know if I passed, I'm on the fence. There are more details I'd like to go into, but I'm having too much trouble typing right now, so I'll explain it later.
Right now though, I have a question for you general readers/stalkers of my journal. I will do just about anything to help my friends be happy in life. I don't mind (in fact I enjoy) when my friends are happier that I am. However, at what point (or is there a point) at which I should just stop caring? I know where I'm at in life, and I know the experiences I want to have, and I know where I'm at right now. However, there are some friends of mine who so much potential in some areas of their life and so very little potential in other areas of their life. I'm very jealous of certain aspects of their lives (i.e. relationships), and yet, I wonder where I should draw the line over dispensing of advice. I like to think that I am capable (and given) good advice to my friends over my lifetime, but without real experience, how can I be sure of that? Furthermore, should it be my responsibility to help other people out in that aspect of their lives when that aspect of my life is nonexistent? What right is it of mine to say anything? I don't know. I feel like I'm a tool for just about everyone I know.
I have an absolute ton more to say, but I'm just not in the mood to type it. I hope to say more soon.
