Go to an Ayahuasca retreat, puke your brain out, come closer to the verge of death and maybe when you come back you'll have a different perspective on life or you'll completely lose your shit and live like a crazy hobo for the rest.
I never did this, just saying it from others' experiences.

Is this my weekend rogue - midlife crisis post? but in a quiet place, Hehheh...
---
I remember logging into this place when hanging at my (then) girlfriend's dorm at Columbia in 2001/02, ...Newstoday. God that was a long time ago. After 17-18 years on the qoob, it's time for me to say farewell.
Sadly, I never really got to share 100% of myself here, just surface level but some of you have shared in my triumphs... and I, yours... over the years. So grateful. I have to admit that I'm a better person on the planet because of this place.
Shoot me an email if you'd like to stay keep in touch IRL / visit whenever you're in town or I'm in your town (looking @ a few of you)
Love to you guys.

- I agree, practicing minimalism and simplicity is possible, we buy too much stuff.Bennn
- buying stuff supports a workforce. no products to buy > nobody making anything > no jobs > homelessness for everyone. capitalism is the cure my boy.imbecile

Considering improv/comedy writing classes has to be a sign.
