Retrospectaculous.

The main moral of that movie is a good answer to your question too.

Those were the days when I could chill at my buddies house, with the whole crew, drinking 40's of homebrew and smoking mass amounts of pot. The days that were concluded with warm summer psychedelic filled nights. The days when death anxiety was was not plaguing my life. The days when I was heavily into eastern philosophy and spirituality. The days when I experienced heavy euphoria everyday. About one to two years ago. Those were the good old days.

I want it back. Sanity is over-rated. Why didn't I just take the fucking blue pill? Better yet, why couldn't I have taken both at the same time?

No matter how much you think you want to know, you don't want to know. When you find out, you have to start all over, at least I did. And whatever character armor or immortal project I build next is probably just going to be as much bullshit as the last. Not that I am at all really qualified to give it, but at this point my best advice to anyone would be to live life to the fullest and not give a fuck. That is live life like you are going to die tomorrow. I know it seem rather obvious and incredibly cliche, but the quality of truth that it holds is never more apparent then after it's to late. When the bitter sweet taste of death's release reaches your tongue you had better hoped that you had really lived, because thats' the only thing that will allow you to die well.

And another question is how does one judge how well they have lived? One could have always done just a little more or a little better and then you have to face the facts that you are only able to do certain things due to your constitution based mostly on a childhood you were not in control of.

That is a good question. One that I don't really have an answer for. Sometimes when I feel I am close to death or in the grasp of a terminal illness I get extremely angry with myself that I didn't live more free. That I didn't get what I wanted out of life, that I achieved nothing, that I didn't try hard enough. Then other times I see that overall my life has been relatively good and I am grateful that I was able to experience some of the most precious wonders that the world has to offer. When I was younger I always felt that there was supposed to be some kind of closure to one's life. That everything was supposed tie up in the end and all make sense, sort of like a storybook. As of right now I feel like if my life were to end the story would have an unsatisfying conclusion or maybe none at all. It would be like a movie that cut out before the climax. A tale that ended before it ever began. It would be just like

That's pretty much how it all wraps up for me too. No conclusion and each day it's going to feel and be judged differently.

Shoot, can't wait for the next adventure. Been a very sterile last few years, only patches of debauchery compared to the constant criminal escapades of my teenaged years

It's kind of depressing in a way. What I would give to go back in time and relive some moments. Even though I am in the best state of mind now then I ever was and life is better than it ever was.

Get in line. Just about every human has felt that regret.

All that said and done I enjoy my melancholy along with whatever happens today, taking a late night walk with a joint and some memories is often all I want from a moment.

Nice for you. I was there once but that balance is getting harder to maintain it seems. I think my brain is fried.
I have most of everything materially humans generally think will bring happiness.

I can relate to this, as i have had a passive last few years after coming out of a very aggressive , adventurous period of adolescence. I'm not done though Ive been hoarding and adding to my money collection which will fund a one way ticket to Europe and possibility a great adventure.

Well I would say I'm depressed at least half the time, but appreciate it in a poetic sense (really overusing that word today ). The day I can no longer appreciate that would be a sad day, and I won't claim that its impossible as the impossible has happened too many times already.

Sounds pretty similar to my situation, hope your adventure goes well I've got some coming up as well though they'll have to wait a few months.

You weren't there then, or now. You never did exist. You are just a pigment of the invagination that never was.
Even if I told you it was good, you would want a link. Well I am not about to prove to you how you should have never missed what never was and will never be.
And don't ever make me ramble on like this just to make my point.

I miss the good ol' days.
The days when my dad was alive, none of my friends had been murdered or accidentally killed. When love was new and felt like it could last an eternity. Before all my friends were so deeply driven by their instincts that they ended up in relationships with people they don't love and children they don't want.
Despite the pain I carry in my heart from all I have been through and lost, I know that one day, these too will be the good old days... I can feel it...
I went on a long bike ride yesterday after the sun sank, when I was back in civilization, I parked my bike by the river and just laid on a park bench and stared at the moon listening to the breeze in what remains of the leaves... It hit me that none of my friends take the time to do things like these. That I do it because I know I am dying...
Although a part of me is dying for the simplicity of the good old days, my dying right now is what inevitably makes them...
