I seriously need to contribute something useful to society. I need to figuratively bring something to the table when I sit down. Suddenly I feel this way, how odd. Perhaps some sleep will help.
Your desire to contribute is based on societies pressure to perform and be an asset. Not "bringing something to the table" doesn't contribute anything to society or the economy. We're brainwashed into thinking.... nevermind. Just nevermind :P
Okay, I can't seem to find a way to respond to this correctly. It always comes out sounding wrong. So, I'll try something different.
When I say "contribute", I don't neccessarilly mean like creating new medicines, constructing buildings, or being some type of leader. I was watching a Bond music video the other day and I thought, "They're contributing, and doing what they enjoy!" And I mean I realize that right now I spend most of my time doing stuff that I enjoy personally. So I'm hoping that eventually, I'll be able to do something constructive that I also enjoy.
Okay, I didn't really get much said there... heh.
I know there are always some people out there who seem to do everything - who contribute all they have to making things better - but really, those people are few and far between, and as much as I respect and value them - I can't be them, and there's no point in trying.
That's certainly a good point. I know people like that.
