RE: I Miss Getting Really, Really Lost

in #travel3 years ago

I'm literally stuck in about a 5 mile radius. I've come to hate this town and the endless sprawl of city after city after city with no space in-between. Of course it's all fantasy because I can't go anywhere at all. Money is all that matters. I have never been able to make any so I live like a homeless person in a tiny apt and wish to be invisible every time I go outside. I have no friends having lost them all to death suicide and extremist conspiracies. I'm so delusional I actually fantasise about having a girlfriend. Which is virtually impossible because I am exactly what no one wants. Failed artist failed musician failed photographer failed human. The last 30 years here have been a nonstop contraction of every right and freedom and every thing fun and worth living. I should have been a criminal land developer building enormous cheap falling apart condos for huge money and just screwed everyone and then I could have a car with air-conditioning like everyone else and and then I could just pay escorts to pretend to find me attractive. I've never been to Europe. Never been to 99.99999999 percent of the world. Cant afford a passport. I walk around in circles afraid of being shot to death because you know this is America where every person has a gun collection and 3 dogs. I'm inane and utterly unlikeable. Where do people like me go? There's no place. I argue with myself that I'm an artist or some sort of creative person. It's pathetic. It's so ugly here I can't stand it. I would like to see Australia. New Zealand, Tasmania. I doubt I will ever see the tropics as I hate heat and don't fancy dengue fever or some cerebral malaria. I already have enough night mares as it is. I would like to see Peru and Chile and The Monets in the Orangerie. Not the Orsay. The oval room. well. once again writing has lead me into confessing my ugliness.

Sort:  

Ross, you do realise that you create your own story, don't you? Ever since I've known you here, which is bloody years, you've complained about your life and how horrible you are, and it doesn't matter what I say to you, you still say the same story. You need to find a way to rewrite your story. Would you call someone else ugly and boring and unworthy? No. So why do you believe you're that? I feel sad that you feel this way about yourself, but I'm not going to tell you for the hundredth time that you are awesome, because it had no effect on you for the first hundred times. Just get a backpack and walk away. Give away everything you own. Sell it. Take your camera and your phone and walk your country. Just go get lost. Take a risk. From what you tell me, you have nothing to lose.

Thank you.

You are right
