Posted early today that I was in a bad place mentally. Spent 5 hours on the river with my buddy , who I've known since we were 4 years old.

I feel ready to take on Clown World again ! We had a blast , caught 8 carp from 8lbs - 26lbs . Saw 2 Bald Eagles , nesting Ospreys , and a Peregrine Falcon destroy a piegon mid flight !

Awesome day overall ! Glad I did this instead of slaving away for 10+ hours for a few shekels. I actually took a paid personal day , so I made money having one of the best days I've had in years. Good times.

I really love you brothers , and sisters ( few though you may be ) , hope you all take some mental health time for yourself when needed .

I feel ready to take on Clown World again

Dude, I took a year off from all of this. I had to. I’m glad you’re feeling better, but consider that one day may not be enough.

Only you can measure your tolerance level, but just be self aware.

That one year taught me a lot. For one thing, I am more self aware of when this world is starting to make me feel heaviness. I’ll probably be taking another break soon because of it.

If you can, don’t let yourself get to the point that you were earlier today in the first place.

Being informed is good, but it comes with a cost.

I was WAY HAPPIER when I just said “fuck it” and paid zero attention to this shit. I focused on my own life, family, finding a new woman, better paying job, etc.

What we feed our minds daily - even if it’s true - can make or break us.

The world isn’t all bad. There’s good, too. But it’s hard to focus on the good while you’re focusing on the bad. I appreciate this site for what it is: a place to show me information I can’t get elsewhere and to force me to think. But it usually puts me in a bad mood. Bad moods are not good for life, man.

I hope your mental state stays good.

I just know my mind is retarded.

Absolutely. Awhile back I kinda fucked off for 4 years. Every day I didn't work for shekels and managed to survive I took as a win.
