I’m 29 years old. I work a minimum wage job and still live with my mother. I’ve had 1 girlfriend and never went to college. I don’t really own anything that has any worth and my weird taste in style and humor keeps me from really fitting in or being relatable. I remember seeing this as a bad thing and being depressed about it but now I understand that I was just trying to get society to accept me.

The truth is, we decide what it means to be happy, successful, good, bad, rich, poor, etc. No matter what you do in life and the decisions you make, you’re always going to have massive groups of people who believe you are living life the wrong way. This is ok, it’s only their perception and opinion on how you SHOULD be living. Just remember that there actually is no right or wrong way so do as you please. Listening to other people and following their lead may be more convenient and seem less stressful but ask yourself deep down inside what do YOU care about. 

If you can weed out the voices and opinions of other people around you and find the source of what makes you, YOU; then you could find the key to your own happiness and not rely on drugs or other people to bring you up. It’s all love guys! 💕
