chroniclesofcisco:I don’t know if it’s the after-effects of the Enlightenment, all the champagne I’ve consumed, or meeting my best friend’s adult daughter from the future, but I’m feeling more reflective than an episode of “This is Us” over these past few days.On the plus side, with all this craziness going on and that lingering hangover, I’ve barely had time to experience the existential dread of dying of old age and never making your mark on the world like you always knew you would growing up. I take that back. The dread is here.I don’t even know why I started feeling this way. I thought it might because my breakup with Gypsy. But, it’s probably Nora suddenly showing up and talking about knowing us 30 years from now. Which is nuts because I was sure my mind would have been uploaded to the cloud by then. Nora has been careful not to drop any future truth bombs about Team Flash, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been thinking about my future. I wonder if what I do today will make any impact on the world in the future. Do I become the next Albert Einstein or am I just thought of as that guy who hung out with The Flash, played Overwatch for days at a time, and could quote every line of dialogue from “Young Frankenstein” upon request? Actually, that would be a cool thing to be known for. If anything, thinking about the future has made me want to double-down on my life in the present. Time to seize the day… or at the very least, seize a Big Belly burger. After all, you can’t live your best life on an empty stomach. -- source link
