What do you Want – Unwarranted Advice

Here we are, not quite at the ends of our uncollected ropes: stagnant.

And so, I wonder. I wonder what it is either of us want. Is it this? Maybe. But maybe I have always had a problem where I put other people first. But I guess you knew that already.

So now, after our uncoiling, but before we reach what’s frayed, tell me. What. Do. You. Want?

I know I’m a man rendered unsure from years of inward spooling, but I know I am also a man who must practice what he preaches.

So sure, I am interested in knowing. I want to know. I need to know so I can dismiss this gnawing at my loose ends. So, tell me. What is it you want?

It’s always unfair, giving a question for an answer. But they never did say life was fair. The only things they do claim are fair are love and war. So which fairness do you seek? Battle or fondness.

Now before you go ahead and stake your flag, let me remind you that my interests are not singular. This question is about everything.

And so, I asked. And you told me. And now. I need to think for myself.

It’s easy to get consumed in the moment. My world revolves around what I need to do in the here and now. Hedonism is an 8-letter-word for not planning for tomorrow. Or in a few months.

Now I am entirely hooked, bridled, and strapped to the right now. My life is decided entirely on whims.

So I should probably fix that. I dunno. Maybe.

I intended to go into detail about why I'm like this and that I have a problem. But now life's taken me away from writing and into experiencing the day as it comes to me.

Sorry!

Have a good week!
