Today is my 30th birthday. Is this all some kind of sick game?
It's feels like yesterday I was a young lion, fast and powerful. I was the best Pokemon TCG player at my local synagogue. I could live off of ramen and rockstars for weeks. My kimura was unbreakable.
Now as a married man with kids I am slightly more powerful but hardly fast. My day consists of ordering around grown men. I'm slightly more cynical and protective, and I feel like I've lost a bit of faith in people. This is not to say I can't trust anyone, Its just that usually everyone needs something from me. And at this point my phone notifications induce a bit of anxiety.
I ran over a squirrel yesterday, and felt nothing. I only feel truly alive when someone is getting koed or submitted on my TV.
I realize I should be more positive, and I'm thankful for the good things of course. But damn, time is a thief. If I could go back and talk to younger SakurabasEar, I would have told him to take more chances I think
Did any of you feel this way at 30? Am I overthinking this sherbrohams
