In the next few days, while you won’t even have noticed I’ve gone, I will have been accomplishing something exciting. :)

A thought came to mind. There is a certain age where you have the energy and drive to take risks and do unimaginable things. It is also when you wish you had the means to do more. You hold on to the thought of acquiring those means eventually. That’s what keeps you going.

Then there is the age where you lack the energy, lose the drive (to pessimism maybe), but achieve a state of mental stability that keeps you grounded in reality. It is also when you have the means to do more, but no desire to. Your lack of aspiration becomes your key to contentment. What little desire you have, you pin on your children, or get yourself a Bugatti Veyron (if you can afford it)

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could arrive at the age where you had the energy and drive to take risks, and the means and desire to do unimaginable things, while staying grounded in reality?

Seeing as I am not driving the Bugatti Veyron, and am not getting any younger, I am left with some energy, some drive, some mental stability…

They say my desires are not grounded in reality. But, I have a lot working in my favor. Shouldn’t I put them to some use before I am left just desiring with no means of fulfilling them (to whatever possible extent)?

Sometimes it helps to have a blog. You can say things on it without feeling self-conscious or obliged to explain your actions. You can just say, I will be gone for a bit to accomplish something exciting. :)

(I will be on twitter if I can’t help myself)
