change my perspective god, i do these favors for other people. and they’re not making me a ton of money, and these people i do favors for complain so much. and i was asked why i do it (and it’s not as if the work excites me any more) so my answer was that i do it primarily so i could expand my own collection of what i have done. but why am i doing it? is that my end goal? and someone replied to me, saying they knew of a story where a bunch of bricklayers were laying brick to build a cathedral and someone asked a few people what they were doing...and most of the men said that they were laying brick; and one man said he was building a cathedral. and when they replied to me, when they told me this, they said that it is all a matter of perspective. so now i have to figure out how to change my perspective, or be happy with it, and sometimes i don’t know how.
