Everyone has those moments when you just "freeze"... You sit there staring blankly at one spot with your eyes wide open.
And so, at work yesterday, at some point - I froze.
"Max, what's wrong with you?" - my colleague asked me.
And I started to wonder. What is wrong with me?
"You know, I think I'm going through complete emotional burnout. Apathy. No desire to make any plans. Everything that used to bring me emotional joy has become dull and tasteless.
Movies - uninteresting. Music - same. People seem insincere. It all feels like some small-town theater.
And only death - feels real.
It's scary to think about the future.
And you?"
"What do you mean, 'and you' ?" - my colleague asked.
"Well, what are you feeling right now?" - I asked again.
"Right now?.." - my colleague paused.
"Yes. Right now. This very moment!"
"Right now... well... right now, I want to take a dump," he said, and went to the toilet.
The ability to live in the moment - it's priceless.
