Been going through fits of jealousy lately. |
Why? What happened? |

As absurd and pathetic as it might seem, I am actually jealous of some people on this forum. I won't name names. But the thing I am most jealous of is passion, people who have goals. I wish I were like them in that respect. I'm just not all that interested in much of anything, and that bothers me.
I've been feeling like I'm "past it." No real musical drive or new ideas in like a year. Don't see any really interesting changes in life on the horizon, or at least not any positive ones. If any surprises pop up, they will likely be negative. So I'm counting the hours until one of those happens. |

Think about it this way: you don't know them in real life, and you probably have something more desirable that you can't see in such a superficial comparison. And, even if you don't, you can use it to muster up some motivation and fight apathy!
Or not :p |

| Yeah, I didn't mean that I was jealous of their lives in general, as I know them very little. I am jealous of that particular aspect of their lives, assuming they portray that part of themselves honestly on the forums. |

You know, sometimes I really don't get you, Brian.
You're very intelligent, you're not bad looking as far as I recall it, you've got someone that likes you (you're still in a relationship, right?), why are you often so apathetic and powerless?
I'd say "Do it", but you need to find something to fill the pronoun first - don't you have any dreams? Be a Buddhist, then you can just "not do it" and reach Nirvana anyway :p |

| Well, yes, that is exactly the problem: other than my relationship, I have nothing that I care very deeply about. It used to be music and philosophy, but any real drive for those has been gone for a while. Everything is just kind of flat. |

I used to dream about doing something with music, but that dream has pretty much evaporated. |
