sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.
America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Go for long walks. Meditate. Journal your thoughts. Read new books. Spend time alone without devices. You would get to understand yourself a lot much better. Your brain gets the best ideas when it is left to wander.

Uncommon advice:
If you don't know what to pursue in life right now.
Pursue yourself.
Pursue becoming the healthiest, happiest, most healed, most present, most confident version of yourself.
Then the right path will reveal itself.

Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.
Not dying.
Just logging off.

I just had a good friend's stepson die. His name was Cody; he was an actor. It was in the media, 34 years old, three little kids, an adorable and humble kid. I call him a kid because I first met him when he was in high school. He was determined to be an actor and became a successful artist with a bright future. The family, mom, stepdad, and step-sister are devastated; they did not take any shots. But Cody being in Hollywood, was required to if he wanted to work.
He died in his sleep. So ma…
Sounds like Cody made a terrible choice (money over health). This is an awful situation, made worse by people failing to recognize their own complicit ness in allowing this to continue.
No one was forced.
So sad. My great uncle used to say anyone under 40 thinks they`re immortal
