most people see only the emptiness and despair. they are paralyzed by the openness of life, the truth that you can do as you please and that there are only consequences after your actions, not before. i know i do not know everything about life, but i am pretty sure of some things. that because everyone can do what they want all the time, it is important to decide what you want from life, and work towards having it. once you know your destination, life becomes a well-trod road, with only small detours from the path that do not deter you from your final goal. and that life is utterly meaningless without a goal. people see too many things to be, and cannot decide, and while their time away with things to keep busy, things to keep them going until they see the path meant for them, and most never realize the path only appears to those that set out on it, that fortune truly favors the bold.
