I try to approach life with a goal of making someone else's life a little easier each day.

I'm not always able to make myself feel better, but if I can make someone else feel better, well, that makes me feel a little better.

And like, obviously you shouldn't burn yourself to keep others warm. But building a fire for others can give you a chance to take part in the warmth yourself.

I was at a job interview this morning and this guy asked me where I saw myself in five years. I laughed and said I'm not one to think too far ahead

Honestly i don't really get the idea. Life is an open field, just lay on the comfy moss before it rains.

I get painfully bored when I relax for too long. Unless I'm sick, then I can watch Mayday Aviation Disasters for days.

It's mostly a metaphor lol

No but I like mini goals. Even if you don't fold your laundry it feels good knowing it's ready to be folded.

I do, but they're unattainable (even if they aren't very lofty in nature) because the common denominator in all my life's failures, is that it's me. I have never known true happiness or success so I can't even imagine it.

Some people just exist to make others feel better about themselves, and to serve as bad examples.

Why not learn Japanese? The books are free on Library Genesis

That's an amazing idea! I like learning languages too
