My past led to me to my present circumstances . You must have a huge regret somewhere if your past hasn't built into a future and present that you're happy with and excited to continue building. I'm not saying there's nothing I miss, but that's not the singular focus of my existence. I still have good times, even when I have struggled or will struggle in the future. Or you might just be depressed. | ||||||||

That’s the thing about the depression, is that that there is a somberness to accepting that you cannot continue building. For example, if you are 80, you cannot keep building a future for yourself. If you are 20, you cannot keep building a childhood for yourself. There’s a raw acceptance involved, like a cold bath. Some stay in that cold bath, some even embrace the cold bath. The reason depression is not bounded to any time period or generation is because this is the human process that is constantly occurring. You’d have to be oblivious if you keep moving forward happily, honestly. In a sense, I’m suggesting it may be crazy to not be depressed. | ||||||||
