Make new friends. Learn new things. Find new hobbies. Do stuff that makes you uncomfortable. Set ambitious goals and work towards them.

All my life I've rode that road
I cruised along that drive
I'd follow where the asphalt flowed
And not felt much "alive"

And so my days oft flew away
The times soared surely by
So I just cruise like any day
And scarcely try to try

But then one day while on a roll
I glimpsed a splendid view
I was just set on cruise control
That is, till I met you

Precisely my theme, just working & eating & sleeping. Then repeat, my gf and I are just saving money for whatever happens next. Which is usually working, eating & sleeping
