Being in situations that deprive me of what I want force me to be more of what I want. The uncomfortable void fosters maturation and personal growth. To learn to be happy and fulfilled without the external things I think I need, that is the greatest lesson ever. I thank the universe for that.


Great insight, it`s good to see you`ve come to this conclusion. The external is only a reflection of your state of being. It`s the way you react to the external situation that matters.
Keep up the great posts!

Thanks Tom! Now the trick I need to learn is how to keep REMEMBERING that. lol
Hi past self. This is your future self. Sorry but I have to disagree. That learning through deprivation crap is bullshit. If you have the opportunity to get what you feel you need to be happier then do it! Cause really, you are NOT happy.
But you know that now don’t you?
Sorry you had to learn the hard way. But hey, a year from now your life is going to be so different and incredibly awesome so it’s all good.
