I'm purging this old list and this is the first to go!
21 months ago
Every moment of my life that I don’t spend in my own head or I don’t spend doing monotonous busy work, I spend thinking about what other people think of me.
Ever since I was a kid, I knew that people didn’t like me. And I knew that it wasn’t just me they didn’t like, it was everyone they didn’t like. And I didn’t like them. We all hate each other and that’s fine with me.
I’m always going to feel like I have to apologize for being me no matter how much self-therapy I administer on an intense and, thankfully, occasional basis.
What’s the point of holding up this perfectly good spot on my list with my… shit.
Neverending Goal!

This is something that I want to try to do for the rest of my life because it’s such a wonderful goal. The best thing about this is at the end of the day I know that there was at least one point that I forgot all of my worries and couldn’t stop smiling.
