mr kurns, me sick.

So I sit here on the internet after a somewhat tiring day at ups, just browsing away through page after page until I reach the end of my usual routine (ie email, comics etc.). So I decide to sort of look up some old friends from the internet, some of which I'm sure wouldn't remember me as they were simply people I knew off of a forum a long while ago.

I have to tell you, I'm almost blinded by their success.

One writes for a popular gaming website.

Another has a pretty decent music career in the works.

Then it hits me like an iron beam falling from a crane... These people obviously had goals and ambition. They had what most would call a "can do attitude." So I kind of lean back in my chair and think about myself and my goals. Certain friends begin to enter my thoughts, these people with such ambition. I begin to think unfortunately "what am I doing wrong?"

I've realized an epiphany.

I have become comfortable.

I have become stale.

It's for these reasons I feel I lack this certain ambition to try and succeed. I lack the ability To make goals that far surpass the sky, and bury themselves deep within the cosmos. I lack the desire to try and reach any of them.

Well.

I feel as though I need to do something. I don't want to end up like my father working for people in businesses being exploited for my labor doing something I despise. No.

I need to achieve something more, something greater!

More or less this is how I feel.

Today I feel a change. These spinning wheels do not satisfy me any longer. Perhaps this little excursion online has been the gravel needed to pull me out of the pit. Ladies and gentlemen, today I reach for the stars!
