I always thought I could be something more than I am, but I'm a lazy mf. Is who I am good enough to get me through the day? The answer was usually yes. So that's what I went with.
If I could have a do over, the outcome would likely be the same. Acceptable but unremarkable.
@SSNBubblehead reminder: you didn’t ask to exist, and the absurdities of the world were already established well before you got here. I assure you, the lives we all lead are all made of concessions along the way. It’s okay. None of this ultimately matters. That can be jarring to realize, but it’s also not an excuse to be a jerk, or too down on yourself.
