Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't trade all of my life experiences up to this point in favor of locking myself up in my room or anything, I just understand how people can get into that mindset. The real world is full of uncertainty, but if you live inside of your head and follow the same routine without experiencing the real world life becomes safe and predictable. I guess I just admire people who can live like that. If I was in that position I would probably have become an hero by now.
The Nether just took on a whole new meaning.![]()
I just feel immensely sorry for anyone who chooses to live their life that way. It's understandable how people can get like that, but they're missing out on so much and they won't realise until it's too late. Part of growing up is realising that some things are far beyond your control. We learn to accept and cope with uncertainty and new situations, and sometimes that means making mistakes, but if you didn't you wouldn't be able to learn from them. For some people that idea can be uncomfortable, even scary, but ultimately it's something we all have to do in order to become adults. People can't stay in a bubble for their entire life and just shut out everything they don't like. The world doesn't work like that. The saddest part is they won't realise this until they're made to see it in the hardest way possible, and sooner or later that will happen to them whether they like it or not. Life has a way of kicking you in the ass.

The point of growing up is to fuck up, and learn from it.
I mean there's learning from what people say, and doing it. If someone came up to me and feed me a bunch of bullshit about motorbikes being deadly and cars being safer, TBH, i feel safer on a bike then i do in a car...
Its just yeah sad, the worlds an amazing place, to grow and develop ones self, you just gotta go exploring, try new things, see new things, met new people.
Ups and Downs, most people are riding a rollercoaster, his on a ferris wheel, thats not working.
Couldn't have said it better myself, and I completely agree.
I know man, I agree with you.I was just justifying how one could develop that mentality. And you're right, the only way to truly learn is by doing. My only point was that the people who can learn to deal with that immense loneliness and still have a reason to get up in the morning have my respect. It's one thing to be socially awkward and not have many friends, but to spend your entire childhood alone with no one aside from family to talk to is something entirely different. I would probably kill myself if I was in that situation honestly. If someone can get through that and still end up being a semi-rational, well grounded human being then they've earned my respect.

It just gets sadder. You know what's sad about it? It's like, he's not living life and stuff. It's just sad.
I hope I'm not the only one unable to get on PSN right now?
I do believe pink grapefruits with sugar are the best kind of fruit to eat for breakfast.
Not that I have any, just sayin'.
