I think I’ve missed the point of life. Maybe I found it for a while, but the last 10
years have been a haze, in which I’ve retreated into myself at the expense of
relationships with other people. Other people
either want something from me (which I am too exhausted to give), or they are
toxic (focused on things that I don’t care about). I find myself sitting alone, a lot, and
wondering what the hell I’m even doing.
I don’t want to go anywhere or do anything, because nothing sounds
fun. Textbook depression, right? Maybe.
I just feel alone, even when I’m not alone. All my favorite people are teenagers, which
seems counter-intuitive to adult happiness.
For a while, I thought maybe I could just vampire away their youth and
be happy, but … turns out, that is not a good plan. Since I’m the adult, I’m supposed to have my
shit together and give good life advice and all that, but I don’t have my shit
together, and I certainly don’t want to give them advice which would put them
in my place in life. So … I don’t
know. I am much better at giving good advice than at
taking it.
Time for a new plan.
I wish I cared enough to make one.
