Good for you and good luck. I do not think its selfish to not have kids, I disagree there. My brothers soon to be ex wife stated something similar when I brought up the kids subject a couple of years ago. "Obligated" seems like it's forced on you and you must comply and if you don't extreme guilt sets in. I choose not to live like that. I'm no role model for sure anyway.

This life was kind of forced on all of us. I didn't sign up for this!!
That's why I suspect there may be somewhat of an obligation to perpetuate it.
All speculation though so I don't think what is best for me is necessarily best for everyone.
But I do think it's a pretty safe bet for most people either way.

Well being born is something that is forced, it’s not a gift it’s done with the parents in mind and not you. There is no obligation to continue the cycle. Sure you wouldn’t be here if your parents didn’t make you but I fail to see how that is proof of anything else.
That being said I want to see a Great White Shark in nature though, also to hold various beetles of enormous sizes including but not limited to: Goliath, Hercules, and stag beetles.

To find one for starters. Even after discovering shrooms that helped me out of a deep hole I cannot find a worthwhile mission I can hope accomplish with my meager intellect and character.

I have a mountain of work ahead of me before I can even jokingly call myself inspiring or a good person, it'd be a start though.

The fact you even can look at yourself from that perspective in a positive light is great. You probably aren't too far away, I reckon.

I live my life as I will, I don't try and influence others apart from being kind. I'm constantly being reincarnated though. New phases in life require a new mission and skill set.
As a legacy though I would really like to buy enough blocks in a suburb, plant grass and trees and leave it as a public space. Like a memorial park, except whether or not people remember me doesn't really matter. It's more that they have a space to be. A place to make memories that doesn't cost entry.
Probably a silly dream. But that's okay I guess.

Thinking about what I should be like and how to treat people is the easy part. In reality I'm too quick to label and judge. I think people are doing the same to me which leads to me not being sincere. It's very difficult to form a bond that way. I used to be much worse so that's something at least. One reason I love tripping is that I become the person I want to be, it happens so naturally but it's not quite sticking after the trip.

Here's a fine goal, I want to get into the situation where I run out of space to store dried mushrooms. Then I can look into other varieties, so much to do!

1. Create things. Art is an ever-moving goal that always pulls me back in, when I'm out for too long.
2. Figure things out, whether it be a new skill or understanding. Usually only applicable to things that interest me, but occasionally involving things that don't.
3. Remain true to self while still experiencing personal growth. It's weird observing the passage of time and watching people remain so stagnant and set in their ways.
4. Hang out with the dog.
5. ???

To poop in peace everyday amen. To be able to speak/read 10 languages. To remain debt free till I die. To love and be loved. To be the first man to have sex with an alien. To free the tiger king. To own a nuclear powered navy aircraft carrier and a self sustained Island country. Become a wizard of botany/bio/chem/mathematics/medicine. Personal Harem. To resurrect Harambe.
