Real life

[nick_o_27]

a great friend of mine wrote the other day "Is there any person in this great big, fucking world who is content with the life they’re living? Why do we always want more than what we have, or more interestingly, what we can not have? The things in our life that keep us breathing, living, smiling, dancing, these are the things that we don’t notice.

Excellent; just what I was looking for.

Firstly, I'll say thankya, as this was right up the alley I was looking for. You said it eloquently, simply, and cleanly, which is the best way to say anything.

I've got another full year before I even start looking for a job, but I wanted to make sure that my attitudes about life are not some off-kilter psuedo-pathology. I wanted to make sure that it's not like Freshman Year Marxism (as in, when you're 18, you think Communism is viable and good idea), something that quickly is squashed by the reality of the situation.

I think your insights and tips are top-tier, and will keep this in mind as more of my friends join the Machine.
