I've been thinking a lot lately about how everything I have tried to do in my life has led to failure. It's as if it's my destiny to do nothing but fail. Job searches, promotions, keeping friends, family ties, hell even my relationship is likely going to be over very soon.

And it's ok. I've accepted that. Some things just aren't meant to be.

I've made it my goal in life to keep everyone around me happy, even if it means I don't get to be. Seeing my friends happy is way more important to me than anything else, and I don't know if that will ever change.

That's definitely a noble goal to keep everyone around you happy, but don't give up on yourself! I had a recent endeavor that ended up not working out a few months ago and I am still bitter about it. But I decided that I will go at it again. I will go farther this time because I know better about what to expect and I have learned a thing or two from my mistakes. If that does not work, I will try the next best thing. Just don't give up!

Right now, I'm just enamored with the lute, and Renaissance lute music, and this Renaissance piece first composed by English lute composer, John Dowland called "Lachrimae Pavan," in English, "Flow My Tears."

The contrapuntal nature is just enamoring, and I have to learn this piece. I don't own a lute, unfortunately.

Turns out, I can tune my acoustic guitar's G string down to F# and capo it on the 2nd fret to get close to the sound of a 6 course lute. Now to learn this piece...

 
I'm probably just gonna settle on Flickr. I've been meaning to put my photos on there anyway but I'm kinda glad I never posted any of my photos on Twitter (with the exception of my profile banner) cuz if there's some dumb risk for privacy issues due to the thing™ then Twitter doesn't deserve to host any creative works whatsoever.

Artstation might be an option worth considering if you haven't looked into it, though, SMS. It can kind of double as a portfolio depending on how you organize your art and stuff.

Oh yeah I did make an Artsation a years ago but I didn't post on it much, I could probably post there more, and I did like its portfolio type layout.

I still will make the Facebook account if I need to, exclusively for Switch screenshot posting because its faster than the QR code thing.

finally decided to cut a toxic family member out of my life, and people don’t get it. I’ve been going back and forth on this decision for years, but I know I’m making the right choice. just because someone is family, doesn’t mean they deserve to be forgiven. family members can do awful things and be s*** people, too.

the trailer for finding paradise on switch was on my recommendations on youtube, so I just watched it because I liked the style of graphics that were shown. just a 2 minute video and I was literally tearing up. still not sure what the game is exactly, but the trailer hit me in the feels.

*edit- okay, I just read what the game is about and now I understand why I wanted to cry. NONONO. I will not be playing that game after all. just reading the game’s description made me go into a depressive state. don’t do it guys, I’m warning ya
