What does it mean that you finally did it?
I've been reeling on a thin line that is the hedonic treadmill. I know that it's happening to me, and I know that in spite of my conscious awareness it will eventually eat me whole. Maybe it already has.
But (yes... that ever present but) ...
Can you really put your fire on the back-burner? Can you really take the only thing at the moment that gets you excited like a little kid at Disneyland and just say "no bro, time to stop".
Is this the youthful ambition of life? Will I eventually lose this to a content-yet-yearning stasis? It's as if it's no longer a battle of good-or-bad (*red flag one*) but a matter of following that self-zeitgeist to its end. A wayward spirit to boot. Taken further, an insidious possession.
What did the creator of Future Bass say having discovered this new sound? "Idk if this will slap but man it sounds good and I'm going to go with that". And now, here I am listening to future bass in all its glory.
I'm resolved to follow through. And then I'll look out into the sky on some bright day and look back at all the moments that led up to it. Happy that I did it and that I can do so much more.
