Go ahead, draw your life!

But don't make mine look so boring. I'm kidding. I don't mind people drawing their life, sometimes I like to find out how they became who they now are. But at the end of the video (as it's usually a video) I feel quite... Ummm, I get trapped into an existential crisis, frankly.
I've been getting this kind of feeling since I was around sixteen. And that's what makes me feel so old all the time.

I'm too old to start doing stuff

"Doing stuff"- sounds so educated. Thinking this way means killing your dreams. I started living an actual life when I was seventeen. I started playing the violin, doing ballet, writing poems and writing music. I'm so happy I found out what I can do in my free time. When I play an etude like a pro, I feel that I've achieved something. It's not an impression I get at school where I basically feel forced to study. You are never too old to start doing... stuff. You can only be too lazy. Like me now- I'm too lazy to think of a better word than "stuff".

I can't get better friends or a boy/girlfriend

I've seen a lot of people (even in their twenties!) say: "If I leave him/her I might never be in a relationship again." Ah, so you'd rather spend the rest of your life in an unhappy relationship. Clever.

People don't change- why would I change?

This can regard either your physical appearance or the way you behave. You've never had a hairstyle that suits you? Your eyebrows look terrible? You have some belly fat? And the main question- are you willing to change it? If so, change it. Altering your behaviour can be tricky. I'll write an article about it. What I can say now is that I'm choleric and I hate it; therefore I control myself and I'm doing great. Everybody thinks I'm melancholic.

I could go ahead forever. 
You can get a better job.
You can go out with your friends more often.
You can establish a family.
You can go vegetarian.
You can start cooking instead of eating fast food.

Do anything that can make your life better, more content, happier, then draw it and show the people how boring their life is. That's when they can realize that their life can be what they want it to be, they can start dreaming.

Now think positive, spread happiness, my rant is over, I'm gonna watch Spongebob.

love & peace
