The Fleeting Little Life of Peter Wright

A few days ago, I ran into this video above. I am subscribed to one of its writers/directors, Sammy Paul, and I am a fan of his work. To be honest, I really can't make out some of the words because of their accent and the auto-generated subtitles are just weird - but for those dialogue that I was able to grasp, it left me thinking... what if this is it?

"Ultimately, it's all pointless; But then, what does that even mean? As a species, we seem obsessed with finding a purpose, a point to everything, but maybe there isn't one... or maybe there is and this is it."

Alright.

I grew tired of having to whine about the same crap over and over again so I just stopped. And so did my posts. 

Over the past few months, I think I've changed a little bit. Instead of ranting anonymously on an unknown blog that nobody reads, I chose to interact with real people. Yes, it's not usually like me but I do feel that it was about time for me to step out of my comfort zone and build relationships with real people.

"See what happens."

In my age, finding new friends is a real challenge. The best bonds are indeed formed when you are young. Unfortunately for me, I was a very proud a-hole back in the days. I never did took care and appreciated my friends because I had the mindset that I can just always replace them with new and better ones. 

I have never been so wrong. Well, there is no use crying over spilled milk. 

Anyway, I was able to gain new friends. Some were honest, some were casual, and some were just based on mutual parasitic symbiosis (I made that up. I forgot the correct scientific term. Haha.) For a time, I tried the "Yes Man" mentality and just exposed myself to a lot of different stuff. Technically, it wasn't really a lot since I don't have that much friends and I didn't actually get a lot of invites. But still, I gave my cynical introverted inner voice a rest and experienced life differently.
