It’s been a while since I have whined about how bored and angry I am about the general nature of things.
I am beginning to think I am somehow outgrowing that feeling. I have learned how to exist contently without so much of the things that everyone else takes for granted, such as relationships, good parents, and a stable source of income.
I don’t how to define this state. Is it just being desensitized? Not even the least bit. I am more attuned to the world around me, more active and energized, and basically more motivated to do what I should be doing. I am at peace, but I am not passive.
I think it’s time this blog started reflecting some of the more interesting, positive things in my life. Most of these things are extremely simple. Just write now I am watching snow melt off of the walls of the building beside me. Some larger chunks fell off and now I can see water dripping from whatever is left.
I have gone back to the way I was in high school. I listen to a lot of classic rock and do homework and then when I am not doing homework I listen to non-classic rock music. Good times really. The feeling that I want to be a 60s child again has come back.

It’s interesting that you write this, because I can sort of relate.
I think I’m just putting more energy into focusing on other things besides what was making me unhappy.
