A future of robots and happiness

Post #9

I am currently contemplating about the future. The future where I am slightly older and slightly more mature, although Im not sure that can be possible seeing as I am an amazing man right now. Older people say that we young'uns never think about the future unless it's about the future of what we're gonna do on saturday. And honestly I can say to those old people, screw you. Your old, go clean your dentures. I always think about the future. I think about how things are gonna be when i have kids, if i will even have kids, what my future will be as a certain career, and so on and so forth. All these things spin in my head like a cesspool of evil thoughts and plans to destroy the world. Although, the thoughts arent really that evil, cesspool just seemed like an awesome word to use.

And honestly when I think about the future, I get scared. I want to live here and now and be a Toys R' Us kid forever, but I cant. Thats a fact. We cant just stay living in the present and expect good things to happen. In order to grow, one must think about things that he wants to happen and work towards that goal. If not, you'll end up working a 9-5 shift at Mcdonalds thinking what wonders the weekend holds in store for you at age 24. Society defines that a good life is having a good career with lots of money and power, and those of you who are non conformists I hate to break the news to you but society is kind of right. You're life is all about you being happy. And of course being happy means being/ living comfortably which comes along with money and power, but if you are happy living on the streets and shitting in dumpsters, i bow my hat to you, my friend. Its all up to your own personal definition of happiness and how you can achieve that happiness, that is how you work towards the future.

Some day, though, robots will rule the earth so there will really be no point in thinking about the future. But until that happens, we can dream and have hope, but thats just wishful thinking :D. playin. be happy.
