I told myself I would do so much. I told myself I would be responsible and focus on my goals. But there comes a point in your life when you realize you’ve been staring out of the window for a half-hour when you told yourself you would work on these goals. And there comes a point that follows where the pen suddenly attaches itself to the paper and the words that come out aren’t the words of the essay you were supposed to be writing; but rather, words that make you realize that the daydreaming window-gaze really wasn’t such a loss of time after all. When you realize that you’ve got plenty of time in this world to waste a little bit letting your brain wander. Because you realize that all you have right now is this moment and there’s no point in bringing yourself down dwelling on future moments. There comes a point when you realize there are priorities of yours that need to eventually be met. Someday soon. But not now.
And then there comes a point that follows when you realize you feel too happy to care.
