“What's wrong with you lately? You seem to be checked out & not yourself.”
Me: I'm grieving a life I thought I would have, battling stuff that no one knows about, & craving a future that I don't think exists for me, so yeah I'm pretty checked out. I'm fine though.
Somebody said don't be afraid to spend money on concert tickets and travel. Be afraid of growing old and realizing the only place you ever went was work.
And I couldn't agree more.
