Interest and engagement take energy, lots of it. Its stressful, anxiety ridden and often frustrating. Passion pounds fists on tables and demands. It requires work, effort, and devotion. You rally, you push, and you pull, but the traction gained, is it worth it?
Everyone seems aflame right now. Change is coming and we will make it happen. The wall bends but doesn’t topple, and eventually will right itself. We will stand on the same ground and think we moved forward.
I say to this, meh. Why bother. Apathy is where its at. Stay calm and recognize the zen of it. If you don’t care, things won’t upset you. Not engaged, zero energy spent. Think of the calories you won’t burn being angry.
The next big thing after the paroxysm is calm. Its almost required. The energy is gone, and finding the motivation to rebuild it, man, that’s the rub. And again, why bother, nothing’s really changing. For a second, but that inch you gain, will be lost threefold after your battery light says its time for a recharge.
Soon, no one will be focused on much of anything with any zeal. It will be a chorus of Oh wells, it is what it is, who cares, whatevers.
The Next Big Thing, get on board or don’t, I don’t care. You could join up, but it is what it is. I mean, whatever, I’m not worried about. Its cool, do what you want. Be dispassionate, or not. Whatever.
