[TheScorpion]

I've finally gotten a job doing some landscaping. It's long days of just working largely by myself, and I've found a lot of time to simply... think. Really meditative stuff, I suppose, about who I am, what my purpose is, why we're all here, that sort of stuff. It's simply been just hours of being lost in my thoughts.

Today, I spent a lot of time thinking about the role of people in society. Not as a whole, but as individuals. If someone was to get hit by a car and just die as they were crossing the street, that's a lifetime's worth of experiences.... just gone. In an instant. All those times you were worried about a presentation or about memorizing lines for a school play... what was it all for?

Every individual person has stories to tell and a life to lead. I figured I'd start this thread as an outlet for people simply to say, just, how they're doing, and what they're dealing with, and what's bothering them, and what they want to accomplish in the future. It's not super complicated. What's happening? How have you been? Is anything worrying you? Are you really excited about anything?

Share your stories if you want. And if y'all think this is dumb, well, maybe it is. Add that as a blip to my story, I guess. But I hope this can just be a thread where we can all come and revel in the mundaneness and serendipity of life. Events unfolding, happening to us all at different speeds.
