almost sent this to my friend who's been super down lately but then decided against it because "that thing you've been wanting to do" might be offing himself
Man, this hits close to home. Just yesterday I decided to get in touch with an old friend from college and I found out that she had died in a car accident years ago, not long after I lost touch with her. Don't put things off, folks.
I'm sorry y'all, every time I try to do something significant to improve my life, life comes by and kicks my teeth in.
I started a full stack bootcamp a few months ago, now I should probably spend my time working, saving money and going through paperwork hell to reclaim citizenship in an EU country and getting the fuck out (I definitely can, I just don't want to go into detail). Maybe I'll try to do uni in Ireland in a few years?
I'm often not waiting for ideal conditions, just less bad conditions. This evening I made some progress on something I've not been working on because I've just been too exhausted, mentally and physically. Conditions don't have to be ideal, but they're often more than sub-optimal.
I did the thing yesterday. It wasn’t my intention, and it was kind of incidental , but I’m so glad I did it in the end.
I can definitely recommend, just do the thing, you’ll thank yourself later.
