What if our destiny was to live life like kids running amuck.
To ignore responsibilities given to us by people given responsibilities from someone else
What if life was a living love letter,
waiting to be opened, explored and poured out,
but instead it was pushed aside by bustling busyness.
Filling our minds with useless numbers and useless tv shows that we watch in order to forget those useless numbers
We’re only actually living up to a fraction of our lives, but that fraction throws up a facade that we are at our peaks, we are in our golden days, when in reality we are not.
We are impaired, and insensitive.
Our only oasis is to be found in others
Our interactions, the giggling, crying, and other miscellaneous hysterics
The kisses, hugs, horseback rides and handshakes.
A glimpse of hope through everyone we've ever known
You see, just to live, is to love.

I've been so confused every since I've come back home for school. I still have no idea what I'm going to do with the rest of my life, and frankly that terrifies me. Maybe I'll still be living with my parents when I'm 25, or maybe I'll have returned to Korea, or something else more or less exciting.
But I'm starting to realize that a lot of things don't matter, and the things I don't pay attention to, do.
There are always things you wanted to do, but never did. I'm trying to spend more time learning, reading, watching and doing various things. Less time lazing around. Newfound motivation to explore, and adventure. Maybe it'll all be useless. Maybe I'll regret it all. Who really knows? But I don't want to waste my youth. I'm about to go outside and go biking. I haven't done so since I was a child. I might get weird looks, being a college kid on a bike in a small neighborhood. But I won't care. I'll be having the time of my life.
