Shiny, (un)happy People!!

When life is on a decline and there is no window of opportunity, where does one find stupid inspiration or will to just continue with a fake smile??
I am practically doing nothing with my life. Every passing day is a cold reminder of how everything I ever learnt or was interested in, is a waste. Not that reading a phenomenal book makes one a great writer or flipping thorugh Henri Cartier-Bresson's images will make me half as good a photographer as he was. Its just that, I am completely fatigued, not because of work and the daily grime but because I haven't done anything I dreamt of as a closet optimist in school. Am 25 now, will I still be as pathetic when I am 50?
Not that I am comparing or am envious, but I stumbled upon this website, by some French guy called Alexandre Cadieu. He is just in Art School and has a lot of potential.

Damn! How does that make me feel....er... stupid. Well, what else can I do but get my best pretend optimistic face on!!

First, thanks to quote me. It's an honor.
But hey, you have just 25! It's just the beginning! You have a lot of things to do, so be cool.
Profite de chaque jour.
