i think there's time for a change in life. not just in my life, me me me me me, but to try and help others change their lives. because life isn't all about me me me me me, it's about the millions of other people out there. acutally, don't think about a million people, that'll just give you a headache. think about one person or a few people, who could live so much better if you didn't throw your change away, or buy that shirt you just "had to get", or buy a bagel for $1.50 when you can acutally eat breakfast and bring something for brunch for "free". i don't know about you, but i think that life is pretty lame these days. we live the same old routine every. single. day. we are so fortunate to have running water, electricity, and unlimited internet access. we are fortunate to be able to go to school, to have a good future, but what's the point, really? what's the point of going to UC Berkeley or Stanford? Is it so you can get the top position at (insert company name)? i think we all have this overrated "mission mindset" that we must go to that UC and we must get a good job. but at the end, you're not taking those titles with you anywhere. when we die, we just end up in the dirt anyway. the hobo living under the bridge is going to ultimately be in the same place that the big CEO is. maybe you'll have an oak coffin and he'll have basic wood, but does that really matter so much? i don't want to live my life where i do the same thing everyday, where i am "secure" in everything i do. there's no fun in being secure, not for yourself, not for others. i want to be able to forget about what other people think and live my own life how i want to live it, forget all the whispers in the back of my mind, then i can really live life. God only gave me this life to live, so that i can do something with it. even if you don't believe in anything, we're not born so that we can die of old age and be burried in an oak coffin.
