I could never understand people who said: 'life is short'. I always thought that a year was so long, and 70 years seemed to be eternity. Now, I know what they mean. I want to do so much, I want to experience many more things in my life. But it will be less than 10 years before I will feel insulted instead of flattered when people think I am older than I am. And right now, it sort of feels like the best part of my life will be over by then (and I do know that's not right... but still).
That is also because my life so far hasn't been very extraordinary. I have done whatever came on my path, and nothing more than that. I have been looking further, but have never taken the action that would bring me away from the path. And I have always been happy with that: so that's not the point.
It is just that I am now no longer satisfied with this. I want to make my life meaningful, either by improving the world, or by just having the most fun possible. And even better would be if I could combine both.
I think I might be too ambitious. But I´m at least making an attempt.

Living your life the way it makes you the most happy is very hard... but I am trying.

I  am rereading this now, a week later, and I don´t like what I wrote anymore haha... Too dramatic. I always get dramatic when I am thinking about life/philosophy... I do. But whatever.
