I'm Booked

I've been working on my car so much recently, that I haven't really felt the need to be going out as much. So this weekend was my first time meeting new people in about 6 months. They usually are pretty amazed by the way I live my life, or think it's crazy. But most of the time, that kind of lifestyle is not for them. They want something more ... normal. It got me thinking.





I started to think about why I live like I do. Why I go after the things I'm after. I've been thinking about this all weekend and here are my thoughts.





Make the life you live, like the book you want to read.





That's it; that was my conclusion to why I am the way I am. I feel like what I do with my life, the stories I have, all the memories and experiences in my head, somehow they constantly compile into the book of my life.





The more interesting things I do, the more interesting of a book I'm able to live out. If the book is boring, it's my fault for filling it with boring things.





No one wants to read a book about Average Joe, yet most people end up living like him. But seriously, could you imagine reading a book or watching a movie about the average day in the life of the average guy? Why in the world would anyone want to base their lifestyle off of this? Usually people aspire to their heros or role models. Average Joe can not be what most people look up to? Can he? Maybe...





I quickly decided earlier in my life that if I wanted to know what I was missing out on by not doing average things, all I had to do was pick someone random, and chances are they could fill me in pretty quickly. And then I could get right back to living my own life.
