What things do you see other people doing that make you ache with jealousy because you wish you were doing them?

But, sure, let's crack open my insecurities. Those who have nothing to hide, hide nothing, right?
(That said, I don't promise to answer any questions you may ask about these things, or to acknowledge any responses you might feel obligated to give.)
- Study abroad, or otherwise immerse themselves in another culture long-term while dealing with minimal responsibilities.
- Take joy in physicality.
- Carry a pregnancy to term with no complications.
- Publish.
- Have a concrete goal and make concrete steps towards it.
- Have an actual career and hit milestones in it.
- Actually matter to more than a small handful of people.
- Feel like they can afford to not take themselves seriously.
Three Good Things, 10/7/2015
- Woke up with a germ of a story idea in mind. It's not much - it certainly won't be enough to even do NaNoWriMo with this year -- but every idea can lead somewhere, eventually. I don't know why this happened but refuse to look this gift horse in the mouth.
- A fresh, farm stand apple for breakfast. Healthy and delicious. This happened because I have a somewhat neurotic breakfast schedule, so no one thing goes bad before I get to it.
- My seasonal bunny rabbit. I'll have to write more about that some time. It's awesome. I changed its ears for the month. Just let me have my simple pleasures without forcing me to overthink them, please???
