A tip for a healthy social life : do your own thing
We as humain beings were not made to be sedentary. We were made to move, walk, run, exchange, interact. We were not made to get stuck with the same people nor to be lonely.
Living in a big city, where there is all you can need, you just have to go and grab it. But the key to being in constant flow is to manage your pace, and never get too high, or too low.
For example, if you want to meet people, you have got to get out of your house. Otherwise it ain’t gonna happen. And if you want to meet more people, you gotta know when to get in somewhere, and when to get outa there. When you feel the flow is waining down, that’s, when you know you gotta skip it to the next place.
Change places, change paces, change faces.
It’s always good to do that. You’ll find out there more than you can handle, there’s really enough for you, and you won’t ever consider feeling sorry and lonely again. You’ll see that getting out there is the best thing you can do, and that letting things happen to you is a natural way much better than trying to force them.
Strangely, the best way to keep people close to you, is also to know when to leave them. If you’re at a party or with a friend, and you see somewhere else you wanna go, follow your own path. Don’t get stuck with people. That’s the firts step to feeling constrained and you’re gonna regret it, resent them, and make the vibe feel bad in the end.
If you feel good about yourself, making something that feels good to you, you’ll make people around you feel good too. Otherwise, if you fell depressed and frustrated, that’s gonne be passed on around you as well, and people are gonna take their distances from you as well.
So just do your own thing. In any situation, whoever you’re with.
