21st sep - too blind to see it
reading on the hobonichi reddit forum, a lot of people with their 2021 planners already arrived made a post saying they COULDNT WAIT for 2021 to start.
i'm like, WOW, REALLY? BECAUSE YOU HAVE NEW PLANNERS TO USE? YOUR LIFE MUST BE SO PEACHY AND THERE IS NOTHING TROUBLING YOUR MINDS I MEAN LIKE THE PANDEMIC AND THE STATE OF THE WORLD THAT YOU JUST SQUEEE CAN'T WAIT FOR 2021 SO THAT YOU CAN USE YOUR BRAND NEW SPANKING EXPENSIVE PLANNER.
GOURD. I'M SORRY. THE AMOUNT OF TONE DEAF IN THERE IS JUST SO URGH AND WOW.
LOOK, I GET BEING PRIVILEGED. I'M PRIVILEGED. BEEN BUYING HELL ASS EXPENSIVE PENS ON A MONTHLY BASIS SINCE JANUARY. INKS TOO. I DON'T KNOW WHY I FEEL I CAN DO THIS BUT I DID. I OFFSET WITH DONATING AS MUCH AS I CAN BUT THAT IS BESIDE THE POINT.
BUT JUST TELLING IN EACH AND EVERY POST CANT! WAIT! FOR! 2021! IS JUST POOR TASTE. ITS JUST A BOOK. I KNOW HOW PRECIOUS AND WONDERFUL IT CAN BE. I HAVE MY OWN LILAC CAT FOR 2021. BUT TO FERVENTLY WISH FOR 2021 TO START WHEN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW IS VERY MUCH ON FIRE AND FULL OF CRAP---
I THINK IT JUST MAKES ME SICK TO READ THESE PROCLAMATIONS.
THAT'S ALL.
ALSO SPEAKING OF WHICH, HOW PRIVILEGE, I JUST COMMITTED AGAIN TO HAVE THE MONTBLANC RADENIFIED, COSTING PROBABLY A NOT COOL GRAND. WHY DO I DO THIS?
ALSO ON MY MIND - I CAN WRITE DAILY BECAUSE LIFE THOUGH NOT IDEAL IN MY HEART AND MY HEAD, IS OK. THAT IS THE ONLY REASON WHY I'M SURVIVING WRITING DAILY. YOU'RE NOT IN A WAR, YOU'RE NOT DEATHLY ILL, THINGS ARE CONSIDERED PEACHY JUST YOU LIKE TO COMPLAIN BECAUSE OF YOUR NAFS AND WANTS AND IMAGINED NEEDS. SO JUST REMEMBER THAT. MAYBE A THING TO CONSIDER WHEN SUDDENLY YOU DON'T WANT TO WRITE. YOU LIFE HAS BEEN OK. YOU'RE JUST TOO BLIND TO SEE IT.
