"I’m a little tired of people acting like the be-all, end-all experts on how people in their mid-to-late 20s should be living their lives. Don’t be too crazy! Don’t be too serious! Follow your dreams! But make sure you work hard! But not too hard! Laugh! Dance like nobody’s watching! If I spent every day trying to be just crazy enough, I’d actually go legitimately crazy.
Frankly, I think we’re all a little old for this kind of “advice” to resonate. This is the kind of thing people should hear when they’re graduating high school; maybe college. But I think by our late 20s/early 30s, we can figure it out on our own. Oh, should I travel? REALLY? MY GOD WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING? IF ONLY SOMEONE HAD TOLD ME BEFORE!"

I don’t know. Are you traveling? Are you dancing? Are you walking through cemeteries and dropping acid and spending lazy Sundays listening to rain drops softly knock against the windows as eggs sizzle and crack in the pan? Every day we say “No” is a day we should have someone pummeling us with that same old garbage advice that we swear we’re too responsible and too adult to take.
