gotta be honest

[BodyMachine]

yeah i've tried to keep that together but the older we get the more people have drifted.  a lot are in the same boat and just seem perfectly content with that.  not sure how they do it. 

x2. Most of my friends are scattered around the country, I also just moved. But beyond that, I see them with their relatively new families, kids, etc, and they are ok with the mundane. I wish I knew how to be. Then again I'm hung up on my just recent ex so that doesn't help either.

i've been through that many times.  truthfully the single years were the most exciting, even if they were also the most nerve wracking.  if you're free then try to enjoy it in one way or another.

I felt lost when I was in college. I was working very low paying part time jobs going to college while partying. I even was on the track team to compound the crazy pace. I also like every other college kid I liked to party and drink till the early morning hours.  It took me 5 years to go through 4 years of college.  In my final year I felt lost. My girl who had a career left me and I didn't know where I was heading in life. I kept punching and found my life direction with multiple offers career wise. I'm fortunate that while I was never rich but I enjoyed an upper middle class life. I was able to retire early at 52 with a decent but 40% lower income.

No formula for anyone. I think as a man you need a good woman. A woman who is a decent person who has your back in life. While you're trying to make it you have to limit the party scene. It will suck away your health and the energy you need for life right out of you. Way too much to comment on here. I'll start sounding like a dad advising his son. If you get a half decent job started it's something all men need to feel good about them self in life. I have seen too many follow the steroid syringe lifestyle into hell. It's great in your early 20's being the center of attention with your muscles but when you're 30, 35, 40 and you have nothing going on in your life except your next steroid cycle it's just sad.

what is kava and why do i want it?

Kava is a plant native to the South Pacific. The root is used for medicine.

There are some BIG safety concerns about kava. Many cases of liver damage and even some deaths have been traced to kava use. As a result, kava has been banned from the market in Switzerland, Germany, and Canada, and several other countries are considering similar action. This ban has hurt the economies of Pacific Island countries that export kava.

Kava is used to calm anxiety, stress, and restlessness, and treat sleep problems (insomnia). It is also used for attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), epilepsy, psychosis, depression, migraines and other headaches, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), common cold and other respiratory tract infections, tuberculosis, muscle pain, and cancer prevention.

Some people use kava for urinary tract infections (UTIs), pain and swelling of the uterus, venereal disease, menstrual discomfort, and to arouse sexual desire.

Kava is applied to the skin for skin diseases including leprosy, to promote wound healing, and as a painkiller. It is also used as a mouthwash for canker sores and toothaches.

Kava was named by the explorer Captain Cook, who chose a name that meant "intoxicating pepper." While Captain Cook may have named kava, he didn’t discover it. Kava has been used for thousands of years by Pacific Islanders. Today in the South Pacific, kava is a popular social drink, similar to alcohol in Western societies. It also still has a role in rituals and ceremonies.

How does it work?
Kava affects the brain and other parts of the central nervous system. The kava-lactones in kava are believed to be responsible for its effects.

And then my friend, you die.

[tommywishbone]

Get you ass in the gym. Tighten up that diet. Summer time is approaching. Fine a goal- a show, a power meet, a High School reunion, a Vegas vacation.  If you're working- put in so OT. Stay busy- it will pay dividends.

Send me postcard when you're famous...  hell send me a postcard tomorrow.

[Brixtonbulldog]

i need to keep a part time job to finish school within the year.  i'm 31 so that needs to happen.  it's pretty much the best it's gonna get as far as part-time goes.  

i hate growing up (in some ways).  friends are grown up too and i miss the party scene.  i feed off that.  going out.  making a night of it.  shit changes and i hate it.  i don't mind being an 'adult.'  even being a dad and in a committed relationship.  but this stuck at home or work bullshit is lame.  straight up lame.  gay and stupid.  
 

Just earn good money if you don't want to "grow up" (aKa - struggle with daily shit and rot inside slowly). People I relate to usualy, who are over 30-40, it's all about party and fun, because....... money makes magic happen and life is nice almost every day (I guess that's why many of my circle aren't married and doesn't give a shit about that haha. Marrying before 30 is for these who aren't gonna "make it" anyway, if you are succesfull, at 30 your value just starts increasing and choice of females becomes pretty much unlimited. I'm happy I've realised that way before most of these who are currently on a brink of the divorce, after marrying at 22-24, etc..) and you can do whatever you please with no worries. Work hard AND effective.

p.s. - stay the fuck away from the booze and drugs. No "party"in that shit, it's an ëasy way out", it's for weak people, for losers, it will just bring you down FOR SURE.

appreciate that.  for me it's not so much about money but about the work i'm doing.  i'm all about a sense of purpose. 

the booze is just a nightcap and an occasional party or bbq binge.  nothing near a crutch or dependency issue.

lol 'it's under control.'

Yeah I get it, but money is more about "Do whatever you want", party, travel, have fun, nothing really matters when you are well set financially.
Good that you have it under control and make sure it stays this way. I'm witnessing some of my old friends slipping on that shit now and it's not pretty, they desn't realise it yet, but they are royally fucked already.
