But I've often wondered - why live?
To survive?
Why survive?
To enjoy the pleasures of life?
Are they really worth the hardships though?
After all, when you die, you just doesn't exist anymore, so why even bother?
All these years of hardships after hardships only to just die one day.
The reward is significantly lower than the effort you put in though, won't you say?
I remember puberty. That's the time when people traditionally have these kinds of thoughts.
When you get a bit older you tend to just knuckle down and get on with it.
I never want to go back to my grade school, teen and early 20s years. Young dumb and full of angst, insecurity way too sensitive. Didn't understand that other people's baggage did not have to be mine. Thought mere attraction or a girl/woman smiling at me, because I liked them, just that meant love. UGGGG I was fucking stupid.
Believe me, while I don't like my body aging. I am sooooooooo glad I am free from that prison. Once you get to the point of not giving fuck, you feel lots better.
