Night guys

I've decided I'm going to be doing my best from now on to be a confident person. I figure why not. I'm 31, I've overcome most of the general anxieties someone younger than myself exhibits. I have a decent, steady, well paying job that doesn't require manual labor. In fact, my professional, by and large, consist of maintaining the ability o keep a level head while absorbing shit from people who always have and will be more financially more successful than I. And that's ok. I mean, it's a reality. There's always going to be someone on top. Someone that isn't you. So it's probably not a bad thing to be reminded of it day in and day out. I'm sure though if you looked hard enough at your daily life you'd encounter an essence of the same flavor of inequality. But in most day to day jobs you're not staring directly at paycheck or retirement savings of he guy who just verbally spit in your face. It's weird is all. Money shouldn't be any kind of societal yardstick but it is. And my job requires either forgetting that entirely or knowing it so completely that you love that fact and incorporate it into your very soul. The most hostile and sublime of all takeovers. The complet failure of anarchy. And that's where I'm at. But it's okay. It allows me to decide my own esteem and I've decided I'd be a dick if I didn't carry my head a little bit higher than Im normally accustomed to.
