In all my years of living I have come to many realizations about this ocean of chaos we call life. And although I'm sure its surprising to read that someone like me is even capable of such concepts, you should take solace in the idea that my view of reality makes me happy and comfortable with the inevitabilities of life. Let me explain...
I see life differently than most people. And let's assume that most people don't understand a lot about it for the sake of this text. By this I mean that people are easily swayed to believe one thing without even batting an eye and are susceptible to just laying down and excepting brainwashing as truth. It may seem that I'm speaking directly towards you personally, but I mean this is a broad sense. In simple terms, most people just accept life for "what it is." Well I chose to stray down a different path.
The typical goal of a human being consists of only a few things. Get a job, get a house and basically pay for it until you die and leave your family with the bills. The same could be said for any culture, but in different terms. I.e. get a skill, build a hut and live in it until you die .... be the successor to a throne and rule it until you die, etc. The point being that the general idea is to secure a piece of ground and maintain it until you simply can't anymore. It makes perfect sense. People have a need to feel secure in all aspects of life and god bless them for doing so. The problem with this is the way that people have to live to obtain this luxury.
Most people spend half of their lives in school, training and work just so they can get by on the bills and rent. Half their lives. Before I learned the reason people did this, I wondered why in the hell they did it. They do it because they are basically told to do it. Whether it be directly or subconsciously. Read, hear or watch anything and you'll see the signs of brainwashing commanding that you follow these strict rules that have been set in order. Who set these rules? Who cares? That's not important really. What's important is being able to see through "their view of reality" and build your own, like I have.
My basic view is very simple. You only get 70-90 years to live if you're lucky. Its scary if you actually sit down and think about it. Most of you reading this are in your teens and don't really have a concept of "time going by to fast" so it may be hard to understand this. Its very simple though. Life is extremely short. One day you're sitting there 15 years old stressing about wtf you're going to do in life, and in the blink of an eye you're 30+ years old with not very much left of life. I'm only 25, but I have realized this for a very long time. Getting back to my view, this whole insane idea of wasting half your life to ensure that you can live in a nice house and have fancy things until you die in ridiculous to me. Think of all that time that could have been spent just enjoying being alive.
What is the point of life? I believe it is to experience as much as humanly possible and to literally have zero concern while doing it. I don't want to get into anything religious but I think like this; (regardless of personal belief) If I created some gigantic amusement park that had trillions of things to do in it, I wouldn't want my visitors to spend half the time being trained how to enjoy it. I would want them to just enjoy it one hundred percent of the time. Regardless of consequence, regardless of incorrectness and regardless of humiliation. This is how I believe life should be lived. Do what you want, when you want, where you want without a care in the world. The problem is that this clashes with the set reality that we are supposed to be abiding by, and can land people in serious trouble depending on certain circumstances.
But when you think about anything that you worry about, it always comes down to one thing. What you've been informed should scare you. Nothing should scare you except death really. If that's the only thing holding you back from doing anything, then all you have to realize is that you're going to die someday anyways, so why not just fucking do it anyways? Why not just leave, travel the world, meet different people, experience different cultures, get injured, sleep in strange places and experience as many people as you can and never settle down for one moment? I think its because its extremely hard for someone to dissolve the notion that its a stupid idea. And that if they do that, they'll end up destitute and homeless and become some outcast of society. That, to me, is living life completely restricted and basically isn't living life at all...
Its really hard for me to explain this without going into extreme detail and if you did indeed read all of this, thanks. I've been in the mood of thinking about this lately and I felt I should give some insight into my mind for everyone to read and judge. I know some foolish clowns here will think this is silly and ridiculous. But like I said before, I couldn't care less about consequence, incorrectness or humiliation. If this inspires people, good. If not, oh well.
Have a nice life

I know it's the truth because I've seen it firsthand. My cousin dropped out of school because he wanted to "live life". Next thing he knows, he's out of job with no high school diploma or college degree. No one wants to hire you and now you have no source of income. I know "money isn't everything", but I would rather work hard in school to get a good job than end up without one because you didn't want to waste your life. Besides, it's not like school takes up your entire life. There's plenty of time for family, faith, and just doing whatever the hell you wanna do. We've got 70-90 years to live. Spending 20 to set your self up for the next 60 seems like a fair price.
This is exactly what the authorities' view of reality that they attempted to comfort humans with is. They formed in your mind that there is a need for money to live. A need to have a faith. A need to have a "good job". None of this is true but if you don't follow it, the authorities come down on you with laws, rules and regulations to try and enforce you to follow.
There's a lot in my text that I didn't go into detail about because it would take a very long time to write out. But the basic idea behind all of it is, does anything and everything you do matter to you when you're lying in your death bed.
Again, before you mention it, all of this can be disregarded if you have a family to look after. Your life is not about you anymore, and only about them. What I mean is only doing things that will leave a lasting impact on you. You're not going to be lying on your death bed caring about how you spend 20 years studying to become some title, and how it was awesome living in this house for 60 years. You're going to think about things that matter in terms of life. To me, none of that shit is important. What's important is experience. The feelings you get from just thinking about surreal times you had in your past is worth more to me than a mansion in Beverly Hills any day.
Like I said before, I know this sounds foolish, selfish, immature and completely insane. And maybe it is, but I don't care. I care about me. I care about making sure that I get the absolute most out of living on this rock that's flying through space in the middle of no where.

Check this video out when you get some time. When you talked about spending half your life in training it reminded me of this. Also, check out some other stuff on their channel, you see like you would like it as much as I do. Great thread dude, too true.

College makes no sense to me, i'm the type of person who learns faster on the job than in the classroom.

A wise man once said,
"Formal education will make you a living. Self-Education will make you a fortune."
I would like to go to college and have the grades for it, but after seeing all this I'm not sure how I feel about it. If I get the chance to start my own business or invest in personal ventures I would much rather do that then waste another 4 years in a classroom.
