You know, a year after reading these word for the first time, they hit me much harder. I think that's my biggest problem. I'm no good at doing what's expected of me. I'm no good at school, I mean I passed, I graduated high school, but I never really enjoyed academic pursuits. That is, inside a building with a planned schedule and all that jazz anyway. I can't stand working, I've never really tried to push myself to leave jobs when i hate them. I get comfortable and stay right in my rut. Don't be like the me I'm trying to change. Comfortable existence can be a crutch that becomes far too difficult to cast aside. By all accounts, the best part of traveling is removing yourself from the comfortable, the ordinary.
Um, in short, deviate.

I know, and you're stories are part of why I'm back here, getting myself into the mindset. As long as I'm still breathing, there's potential.
