I'm a Cynic
I know, shock.
It's probably just the fact that I haven't been in a steady relationship for nine months now, but I can't help but laugh inwardly when I hear or see somebody talk about the love of their life. Especially people my own age. According to something called the Flynn effect every generation is smarter than the one before it, on average. Yet it seems (old man alert here) every generation is less mature as well. 30 is the new 20, college is the new high school. If these are the best years of my life, why do people keep living? Not to say I'm not enjoying my life but if it peaks at 24 why not stop there? The love of your life is not that easy to find, you are just really happy right now. You will probably be just as happy in the arms of some future person and in some cases you may have already been. Love is a roller coaster. Just get on and enjoy the ride while it lasts.
Also this is my 150th post. Yay.
That’s when I’m gonna make you cry
