Perhaps its coincidence that almost exactly one year ago I wrote a blog posting whose theme is exactly the theme I was inspired to write about tonight. For those who don't know me well, skip down a bit but read the last half of my "
traveling the mists of time" post since its one of my best and a good intro to the drunken rant below.
I've come to see every day as if its a lifetime in and of itself. Everyday isn't just a chance to change things, or try new things, or grow. Everyday is a lifetime. A lifetime of options, choices, decisions and opportunities. With each morning comes a whole new existence. And if you didn't take full advantage of the previous one, if you didn't maximize it, then what will you do differently now?
Last night was all you had, and you ruined it, you wasted it, you mother fucking retard. You could have done so much. But no, you went to sleep, you stayed in, you rejected opportunity, you refused to grow. Why do you deserve today? You abandoned yesterday and now today you have the temerity to ask for another chance? Fuck you! Start living each night to its fullest, then we'll talk about tomorrow, then we can talk about growth, then we can really talk about life.
When the sun goes down do you? Does the sun lowering also lower your ambition? Is that your cue to become lame, tired, ambition-less? How can you call that a life?
No!
Live the night, embrace the night, use the night. Don't go to sleep until you've changed the world. Don't dare think you deserve sleep before you've told her how you really feel, before you've leaped into nothingness and realized that it may be the last night of your life. Comfort is for sleep-time. When you're awake, be awake, live, jump, don't look down, and if you must fall, fall gracefully.
Don't sleep. Say everything. Do everything. Now, now now!
Fuck you
