If You Look Right, It's 'My Life'
14 years ago
Got a call from an old friend
We used to be real close.
Why yes I still use this thing. I just happened to get a couple of notices that I should pop around here. Actually, said friend didn't even like it here all that much.
Said he couldn't go on the "American Way"
Matter of fact if memory serves me correct, he happened to close his account, delete everything, and get the hell off Furaffinity.
Closed the shop. Sold the house.
Bought a ticket to the west coast.
I think he's having more fun on another site. I can't say I really blame him.
Now he gives them a stand up routine in L.A.
I guess I'll make this easy.
I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm all right.
I’m in good health. I'm not sick. I’m not struggling. I still have my job, which is going to be two soon. I can still keep my bills paid. I still am in good shape and even though I'm only 153 pounds, can bench press 240. (Lots of sit-ups.) I get outside often. I still play sports and use Old Spice. I go shopping every 9 days because I have the ability to do so and don't spend most of my life staring at a computer screen. I go to Starbucks so much I have certain staff members text numbers. I've walked from Detroit to Chicago once just to prove that any place is walking distance with enough free time and to say that once in life, I’ve done it. (It's an 11-hour walk. Nine if you walk down I-696)
Overall, I'm doing pretty well.
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home.
I'll start roaming around Furaffinity and so on a bit more now as I know, I know, I should. Matter of fact I'll do it right after this. Honestly. I will. You'll even notice it when I do.
After all, it's fun to do, and as long as it stays fun, I guess I continue to do it. Even if someone tells me otherwise, I'm still going to do it.
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life.
That leaves everyone to get back to the natural order of things and go back to whatever it was you were doing.
Go ahead with your own life. Leave me alone. -♥
(Again, I'm not too big on talking about myself. I just don't seem interesting to me.)
There really isn't much to contemplate you know. Getting involved with this here and doing what you can is only fulfilling when you want it to be.
After all, you aren't being forced to do anything here or be here at all.
The point here... is to have fun and enjoy yourself. If you can't do that here, then what's the point, y'know?
That's why I don't spend as much time here, and it's at the same time I do.
Some days I like what I see, I roam about. I do what I will.
If I don't, then I get out, and find something else to do.
There's an old quote that's best to abide by that you yourself might like.
"If you love life, don't waste time. For time is what life is made of."
And that's from Bruce Lee.
Yes. The majority of the fandom are shut ins. One used to live up the street from me.
The trick is easy. You look at ask yourself: Do you WANT to be like that? Pretty sure the answer should be "hell no."
Even if you have to go outside and take a walk, or just get up and do 20 push ups for no good reason, then do it.
Maybe I've gotten to that mentality of being able to enjoy everything about life because I have the ability to do so.
Sure I don't expect you to walk from one city to another like me, but I do expect you.. to just try something new, or go some place you've never seen and just see where it takes you as later in life, you can look back and tell yourself "Yeah. I did that. I went there."
...Besides, I don't want to be a 50 year old man that made a living off sitting down and drawing porn.
You're right. People WILL jump on this because hey, when that bubble of theirs is threatened, then people immediately react to it. The world outside the bubble isn't so bad as people make it out to be. It's probably the same as the community. It's got it's moments and stupid people, but if you roam around a bunch, you'll eventually come across something unique.
I think the fact I'm responding to you proves that.
This probably wasn't everything you wanted to read, but it's more or less what I felt you SHOULD read.
That aside, I also wish you luck Shine kun. And I mean that~
*hugs*
I didn't even know that you were on Furaffinity~! This one is a new one on me!
Honestly, now. It's good seeing you again too!
.....I just haven't spoken to you much as...only now am I realizing you're there. ^^;;;;

i did howeva notice theres alota lions hewe wit da wowd lion or lioness in there name somehow in fact all of us lions who commented{ignoring the kangaroo} i know random but i just noticed it
(Hence the title. "If You Look Right, It's "My Life." " On the right side of the journal are the lyrics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40zE7aZkhlw ) It's more or less one of those "I'm ok, don't worry about me so much" kind of journals that I usually make needlessly complicated. ^^;; )
And yes, you ARE quite right~!
I know juuuust about every lion on Furaffinity. I tend to find just about every one I can find I watch and try to keep track of.
[Check my watch list. You'll notice there's a LOT more than you'd even think there where. Example being that if I'm the Light Lion, then wouldnt' that mean there's also a DARK Lion? :) ]
