I think people overcomplicate things ngl

Explain

Idk what a realistic expectation is

But I think an absence of pleasure most of the time... like... you're just existing.... I think it's fine to wish for more than that if it's a consistent feeling and not just one of many emotions that come and go

And it's weird to imagine that's not what most ppl feel I mean what is the point life is just there

I don't care about the purpose of life or anything. Maybe people are so fundamentally different that people will never be able to understand. Or maybe I'm easy to please? I'm very content with how my life is. Could it be better? Definitely. Could it be worse? Haha yeah.

I think that's a fair way of looking at things, just accepting things for how they are rather than wondering how they could be better, maybe people expect too much

But I mean if you're broke or have a shitty job I mean it's hard to make the most of what you have

I think itd be easier for you to understand if you had to work a job you fycking hated just to survive and had no other options at the time it's a waste but you're forced to or you starve

I try to think its just temporary and I will have a real career one day

Holy shit tho the fear I'll be trapped in retail forever is real tho

But yeah I probably need a hobby so I have some meaning to my life that isnt just "wake up and work a job you hate with all ur heart"

My mother has only complaining about money and work as her personality and she's the worst human I've met. Enslaved by capitalism, a pity.

Good point actually

I've been told before dont wrap your life in work

It just sucks we live in a world where you need money to live, and your access to enriching resources is income dependent

But idk you gave me something to think about
