So, I manned up aaaand I checked my bank balance and, well, as it turns out, I'm basically....
a MILLIONAIRE (in some countries)
I didn't spend NEARLY as much as I thought I did in Europe. So, I'm going to be completely irresponsible and TRAVEL my little heart out, because I can and because I feel I deserve it, and it makes me happy and my happiness is the most important thing to me. I stupidly spent long enough being sad to know this. I read this in a book when I was way, waaay down the ol' dumps, when it was all doom and gloom and misery and stupidity and I was being a ridiculous human being, and it motivated me STOP being sad and to choose being HAPPY, cos really, being sad sucks.
"when you sense a faint potentiality for happiness after such dark times you must grab onto the ankles of that happiness and not let go until it drags you face-first out of the dirt-this is not selfishness, but obligation. You were given life; it is your duty (and also your entitlement as a human being) to find something beautiful within life, no matter how slight”
