April was a bust in terms of writing daily. I need to stop looking at writing as something I should be doing and just do it every morning or every night, whichever is most convenient. It also was not a great month financially. I am down again in money but I should begin catering / working for Mick to generate more money. However, I have realized that I've been unhappy with aspects of my life and I need to change my attitude and start really pursuing what I want out of life. I have a more holistic understanding of my direction and hopefully the tools to pursue it.
About a week back I posted about Planet Earth and how depressing our ecological destruction is. Our world is changing rapidly and it will never be the same. Nothing stands still everything is growing or being destroyed. Again Tyler has a more optimistic take on it. He sees the ever-changing world as being an aspect which forces people to stay mentally flexible and avoid dogma. With everything changing there is no way you can allow yourself to get stagnated. Stagnate your beliefs and in a week nothing you believed is accurate. There are the immutable laws of the self but really it becomes clear in a tumultuous world how many factors are influencing identity. Who would you be if you didn't live in the US? What kind of life would you have?
I just checked his blog again and he's got pictures up of Hawaii. I fucking envy this dude. Rock on Tyler. 15 hour days 5 days a week and 8 hour days on the weekends where he still spends 6 hours outside. I gotta throw out the tv. Later.
