In this annus horribilis of illness where it's just been one thing after another, my body decides to catch a noro or something from my nephew. So I was feeling crappy yesterday evening and later woke up having to vomit. But this is where this turns into a rave. After that I felt much better. So I took an anti-emetic and a sleeping pill and went back to bed. Slept through the night and now feel much better. Still feel a bit iffy but if I'm over the bump then it was nothing. Last time I had a noro it was twenty times worse. I have an exam in a few hours so it's pretty crucial that things didn't escalate.
Fret not good sir. You will die eventually and nothing will matter in the end. So don't take that feeling like you've been stumbling over and into things your whole life too close to heart. You have more time than you realize however.
Until it suddenly hits you: you really don't. In a twinkle of the eye, it's all over bar the shouting.
Still, you may also realize that none of it matters. In a hundred year's time, all this will be fields, you know. Pass or fail as many exams as you please, it will make no difference.
Well yes, so you enjoy the small things, it's okay to have lofty goals and ideas, but getting emotionally attached to them is silly. (I'd like to die on Mars, but I am also totally okay with dieing in a ditch on Earth) Flexibility and learning how to enjoy the dull parts of life are most pertinent skills to living a less anxious life.
Do you enjoy playing games? Think of life as one game with a million mini-games. Unless you have the status affliction 'Clinically Depressed' I guarantee you will find something to enjoy if you look a little.
You might be tempted to not bother, but look at it from the standpoint I mentioned. You're going to die anyway and are unlikely to respawn, so make the best of it.

GENTS! I'm feeling self-destructive. What variety of alcohol should I purchase to facilitate binge watching Better Call Saul while feeling sorry for myself?
