over. Normally, I am the center of the universe and conditions need to be ideal for me. That pothole has nothing to do with me.

Yesterday I stopped by a park where an old friend from the neighborhood was celebrating his birthday. I was fresh out of the workshop, so I decided to listen for "it's not fair".

Soon, I found myself in a conversation where a guy from elementary school- same age and all- asked how things were going. I started sharing my challenge with "shiny objects syndrome". He quickly replied, as if to soften things with, " hey, sometimes you're up and sometimes you're down, but it's coming"

I went to chew on that and what I saw was: it's not fair so fuck it, just wait on chance, luck, or god.

Doing this work around people who have the same floor? I think I know the answer. Maybe, and a big MAYBE is doing so with the context and intent to study them. Anyway, I'm watching myself

probably impossible to get ahead if you do the work around people with the same floor.
