“It’s only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything”
— Tyler Durden (Fight Club)
I think I’m just about there. I haven’t lost everything. And I hope to God I don’t lose anything or anyone else. But I can feel myself getting less and less attached. Every sad memory. Every moment of loneliness. Every disappointment. Every heartbreak. They push me. I don’t know if it’s away from something or toward something. I don’t even know what that something may be. But I can’t keep fooling myself into believing that things are just going to happen the way I want.
I can’t pretend that staying here and doing nothing is going to make anything happen.
I can’t keep waiting on things to happen for me.
I have to make them happen.
