When your youth is dead, are you dead? When you are now considered
a "grown up", are you actually a thing of the past? A beautiful
thing
that once was, but is no more??
I go to work. I sit a desk. I type. I take calls. I
listen to morons.
All the while I'm thinking if I wasn't being paid to talk to this asshole,
I sure as hell wouldn't. So is this the way i'm going to spend the rest
of my life? Talking to people I have no interest in talking to?
I look around and I see the people I work with, and they have become
so numb, so brain dead that they don't even realize how terrible this
place is anymore
Life is too short to spend this way. But this isn't just for my job, its
really for any of these jobs designed to suck the life out of you. You
spend 8 to 9 hours in a place you hate. At the end of your life when
you
are lying in bed dieing you'll wish you had that time back.
Time is so short and i'm wasting it on strangers I don't know and don't
want to know.
Men diserve to suffer because they created their own suffering. Money
and material possessions are SHIT. Whats money? Money
is paper. Thats all it is. And we treat it like it is so precious,
so
important
to life itself. I hate money. Maybe thats why I hate most people
too.
Give me a beer. Give me a good movie. A pool table. A girl.
I'm not hard to please. Its not very difficult to make me happy.
Give me these things. Keep your mansions, your expensive cars,
your pricey clothes. Keep them all. I'll be sitting in my hammock,
a beer in one hand and my girlfriend's hand in the other, and I'll be
laughing at the ones with the big offices and their own parking spots
when the get to work. While they are PREPARING for their lives
their ENTIRE lives, I'll be living mine.
And I'll be laughing the whole time.
