Life Needs Episodes

I sit here. Squashed with realization: Life needs adventure, characters and honest pursuit of a good time.

Life is continually unbalanced. It oscillates between the unexpected exceptional events and the corrosive realization that I am unable to do and create such that I meet my own ideals.

Is it so wrong to have ambition in what can be accomplished in life? I find myself lost without a sense of what is undeniably valuable.

Were there no conflicts, injustice, poverty, violence or hatred in this world: HOW WOULD YOU TEACH PEOPLE TO LIVE? How do we improve the world? Where mere existence and subsistence is not enough we need a pursuit. Life must focus on: music/art/philosophy/knowledge/technology and relationships.
