I've got a tendention to do this too. It's always "when this" and "when that" and "when I figure this out", "when I get outta this depression", "when I buy those jeans" or "when I move on to the university" or "fall in love" or anything. it's always "tomorow" or "next month" or "one day". But the truth is, that your (mine, anyone's) life is not going to get changed for better by itself or by any of those things (new hair, new meds, new contacts etc.) I've felt unsatisfied with my life for ever - I remember lying in my bed when I was about 9, thinking "okay, tomorow I'm gonna start it over". I also remeber me dying my hair, joining greenpeace, visitting church, getting piercing, buying new clothes, re-arranging my room several times and doing widest range of other extreme things which I hoped were going to change my life. It never worked. Now I know better. There are no fresh starts. There are no extreme changes and make-overs. Planning ain't get you anywhere, I'm sorry. You have to live, that's what it's about. Even if the life isn't much fun, it's the only thing you have, really. And you know what? Life is happening NOW, not someday in the future when you will do this or that and get this or that. You are living in this very moment, Toker. Don't you forget it, please, don't you lose yourself in stupid imaginations as I did. You have all you need. This life, this moment, your body and your mind... get up and go make something out of it. Good luck.
Love,
Sue
