Its said that life is short....statistically speaking, this is an inaccurate statement. Life is long, and we are reminded by this almost every day. We become bored constantly and are always on the hunt for something new and exciting to occupy our time.
Every person I've had the honor of knowing seems to be in a hurry in life. Life is short, so we all need to be constantly moving and exploring new things because this world is full of infinite information. This is what they say, and only the wise come through and explain the necessities of enjoying every nuance to life. Naturally, these are the more seasoned individuals.
I write this because I can't help but feel all my activities I am currently partaking in are there to fill a void for something I don't have. Right now is summer, but here is my list of "to-do's" on a daily basis.
Portugues, Spanish, Russian, Francais, Japanese, Chinese, MCAT, Physics, 2 books + 1 French book, music history, and reading/following musical scores. Along with this academia is Capoeira, part-time lifeguarding, and trying to keep up with my YouTube accounts and friends from around the globe.
I can't help but feel I am stretching myself too thin to perfect any of these disciplines. My life is revolved around balancing free-time and working time...now I can't help but feel as if my constant obsession with scholasticism, not my lack of activities to perfect, is what is holding me back from the very goal I obsess over.
Alas, I am off to purchase some illegal drugs and drown away my thoughts. Human thought and wanton, the ultimate downfall of man...knowing is half the battle; acting upon such knowledge is the niche humans rarely perfect.
Salam.
