Unhappy with the riches because you're piss poor morally

I've been listening to TI/Rihanna's "Live Your Life" on an endless loop for the past few days. The song is so simple yet so complex: just live your life.

The bravado of hip hop is excellent for when you are feeling sorry for yourself from listening to too much music by whiny white people who think everything is the end of the world. Hip hop encourages you to never back down, even when you're wrong, even when you've fucked up beyond belief: just live your life.

Lately, I have been feeling like the very defenition of the word malaise, which is a medical term, a catch all for when you're feeling crappy but you don't know why. It's a precursor to a more serious illness. I feel like I am viewing everything through a hazy lens, like I'm in a coma and I'm just watching as things happen to me but I can't react to them. I'm a little heart broken and a lot anxious. I'm waiting, and waiting for something to occur, something to happen, and nothing ever does. Like a female version of Groundhog's Day. But you know, funny and watchable.

It's at this point that I have to derive inspiration from my whiny white people:

enjoy yourself/take only what you need from it
