DANGER HABIT FORMING

When you’re young and make mistakes people have a tendency to call it a learning experience


But at what age does it stop being an “adventure of self discovery” and turn into something colorless?

Ill tell you.

It’s the moment you find yourself restlessly crying in absolute frustration at 2am for the same reason twice.

Its when your learned nothing from your “learning experience”

And It  became instead a  “Habit Forming”

and When everyone in your life told you to breath it all in and let it all out and all you did was breathe it in.


when we find ourselves painting our mistakes with beautiful quotes about youth and calling our experience an adventure when it was never

Sometimes there is no redeemable quality in what you have done and it really is just at its core a mistake that you’ll have to accept

because instead of learning from the experience

you sugar coated the experience and thought you left the consequences in the wind

but the wind is just air in motion

its not some magical metaphor that makes all the bad things you do okay.

and today I stepped into my wind let it smack me in the face and give me the middle finger

And maybe I finally learned from it.
