Well ho-ly CRAP.
Thanks for the support, people.
While I understand that some people are content to never go anywhere or do anything except perform the same tasks day after day, year after year, I'm afraid I can't do that.
...
No, you know what, I don't understand how anyone could be happy with that.
But some people are. Ok. I'm aware some people just go on existing, as opposed to living. Or, that's their version of living, and I know that it's different than my way of living. And while I do occasionally prod them and wish to say "hey, you should get out and do something, go somewhere, have an adventure once in a while," I try not to force my views on life, for the most part. Unless poked.
So I would appreciate not being bombarded with "OMG DON'T DO IT!" thank you very much. Just because you are satisfied with your kind of life, doesn't mean I would be. It's not good enough for me.
And further, when I see a chance I have to take it. Right then. Because if I don't, it'll disappear. No, another one WILL NOT come along. If I don't grab it when I see it, I'll lose it. If I hesitate, I'll miss out, and will regret it the rest of my life. Because once the opportunity is gone, there's no getting it back.
And no, something smaller IS NOT good enough.
There is so much out there. How can anyone not want to taste it all? How can anyone be satisfied with their one little city; one little state; one little country? How can someone, in the very least, not want me to live the life I want to live, and be happy that I have the will and the conviction to do it?
Meh... I'm losing track of my thoughts.
The moral of the story is, you all can rot at home all you want, but I will live as fully as I can. Because I have the courage to do so. And if you can't support me, the least you can do is leave me alone about it.
And if I have to point out that I've been anticipating and planning and saving for this for a while now, I'm going to stab something.
You may all go about calling me a dumb bitch now. I even give permission to do it behind my back, as I don't feel like being pummeled over something that I was happy about up until a few hours ago any more.
