So apparently the walking dead is a popular television show. I’ve never seen it but there has to be a reason why it’s doing so well. But more and more people started asking me if I’d seen it and I was like “yeah I watch it every time I watch outside”. Some people get it and some people don’t but the ones that get it found it pretty amusing. It a bit a reference to a blog that I wrote in the past that was titled ‘Are you dead or alive? The answer might shock you‘. But now the question arises: are you a part of this herd as well? Do you kickstart your day or do you snooze and lose? How do you live your life and are you even aware of how you live your life?
Are you even aware of the fact that you can die with regret? That’s a lot of stuff to think about but we’re not going to stop. Here’s a new episode of the walking dead.
You will regret being a part of the walking dead!
So why do I compare people to the walking dead you ask? Well because they’re walking around on this earth but that’s about it I guess. They got dumb and dumber over time and they don’t even get it. Their lives are the same until they retire. Those people get up after snoozing for 1 hour then they argue with their spouse whom they rather live without. They get stuck in traffic and hate on everything and everyone because that’ll solve everything of course. Most of them spend 8 or more hours in a square box that treats them as a number. That square box doesn’t care about their feelings but the people get paid so they’re happy. Well, they’re not happy but they don’t realize it. They make money that they don’t need to impress people that they even don’t like. That doesn’t sound like a great lifestyle if you ask me.
But it doesn’t end there. They get stuck in traffic once again when you go home of course. They come home, eat some crappy food and blame the bad genetics that you can’t get into shape. After that, they argue a bit more, hate their kids and watch television until you go to sleep way too late. Oh, life must be beautiful.
Enter the weekend and I’m not talking about the rapper.
So these people are constantly craving for the weekend because that’s when they don’t have to go to work. But they suddenly have 8 hours more in a day so the first thing that they do is complain when they woke up way too early. I mean who wants to wake up early at the weekend? Nobody right?! After that, they do some everyday stuff and just wander around. These people just drift through life without any purpose. Well maybe they’ve got a purpose but getting drunk and cheating on your spouse doesn’t sound like a great goal if you ask me. Binge-watching television shows don’t sound great either. So they waste all of their time until their about to die.
But what happens then? Well, they’ll reflect on their life of course! They’ll suddenly realize that they didn’t have to stay in their shitty relationship and job. They’ll realize that they could have gotten more out of life and they’ll realize that they’ve wasted all that potential. That’s when they’ll face hell on earth!
Forget about the walking dead and get out of your comfort zone.
It’s easy to follow the herd and it’s easy to judge people who’re not doing it. But it takes a lot more guts to do your own thing and get away from what everybody else is doing. There’s a reason why most people don’t do it. It looks scary but it’s so much fun. You’ll live a life instead of feeling lived all the time. You won’t feel cheated by life if you take chances in life. What’s holding you back? The opinion of others? Never care about others’ opinions! Those people are projecting their insecurities onto you. Sad isn’t it? I mean how would you live if you had the choice?
Live a life where you enjoy waking up first thing in the morning because you’re working towards something or a life where you want to sleep as much as possible. I’m pretty sure that you would choose a life where you have a purpose!
You do have a choice!
Here comes the best part! You are the problem but you’re also the solution so why don’t you take action? What are you waiting for? The perfect Monday? Good luck while you’re waiting for that one!
In conclusion: being a part of the walking dead is something that you might regret.
