Younger years ~ Philosophy and poetry
In my younger years, when I was convinced that I was on the verge of becoming some kind of future famous poet, I would spend endless hours arranging this and that trying to perfect the ideal epic poem.
When that didn't work out, I figured why not try and write an amazing novel, similar to Gone With the Wind. Lots of work and concentration, but then again things didn't work out as expected.
Too much work, work, work and too little time. Bummer.
When events prevented me from attaining such a noble goal, I decided to accept life as is and just live day by day. Not much else to do, which in itself is nonetheless still quite a noble goal no matter what.
And that is pretty much why I am currently living a simple life, forgetting the pressures of the past, and just being my self.
Whatever that may mean.
