I'm probably just going to watch some movies and then rest this weekend.
Ummm... Long work hours may give you DSPD. I hope you can change that situation soon. What do you work with? Which areas are you able to work with right now? I know you work with your father and will continue your parents' work, but I'd suggest look for ways of putting off some of the load, automatize some repetitive procedures or diversifying your future investments, just so you have more of one source of income, protecting your patrimony and it'll make you able to employ people and take some load off of you.
Man, about sleeping schedule, sometimes I struggle with that, but have you ever tried to investigate why it's happening to you? I mean, there are several causes I can think of, like the place you're living, your family condition, your health, loneliness (since it seems your interests and hobbies are different from those around you), stress with job and other stuff... But it could be simplier, or at least main sources in your control that you can deal with and put your body at ease on nights. I hope you can find it out, and if you want me to help, you can talk more about it. I'm open to listen.
I think the same as you, I guess. Money is only a mean, never a goal. It only serves to be changed into something good: food, water, shelter, clothes, services, good moments with your family and friends, weapons, tools, books, culture goods, pharmacy etc. However, you need to choose what you buy and for what purpose. I think hobbies and get cultured in general, even Japanese pop culture, can enrich your decisions in a good way. You won't just buy to consume things when you realize that every action you do is actually you planting your "seed". For instance, if you spend a lot of time farming, you'll cultivate good fruits and grains, get some eggs and milk. If you cultivate your mind/spirit, you'll be smarter, you'll be able to help yourself and others in a way that transcends your life, even if you don't realize it... That's my goal nowadays: doing whatever possible to make a difference on people's lives, even if it's just good ideas, teaching everything I've been learning, or just being a friend who can listen to people's problems. I think it's a way of planting your seed way better than just saving money for yourself your whole life and doing nothing with it at the end, or wasting everything on poor wishes and vices, you know? I even value a kind of saving: heritage. You save in order to make yourself from the future safe from finantial crisis is fundamental, so retirement prevention by yourself and leaving something for your future generations is a must. Children are the continuation of ourselves, so it's just natural to care about them that much. Summarizing everything, my life would be totally worthless if I just lived for money, material goods or pleasures, even hobbies. I know they are important, but I don't think that's enough. If I'm not in service of others, physically or intellectually, my life doesn't worth anything. I don't know if you think I'm talking like crazy right now, but those last 6 years taught me a lot of lessons.
From time to time, depression also creeps out on me. I do think hobbies are important, and some light novels, manga and anime, also some books really helped me out on many moments of severe depression episodes, so I really see how hobbies are important. But they MUST be in service of something better, not only yourself, so be cautious, please.
Also, I must tell you: I've shared some rejection with you about religion years ago, and I still think that there are many religious groups that are bad, and being forced to it is also bad, but in 2020 I got convinced about the reality of salvation in Jesus Christ by personal experiences and philosophical conjectures and theories. Studied and thought a lot about it, and some miracles had been occured, so I can't simply do as I used to reject everything, thinking I was just being crazy... I'd even say that even my marriage is a miracle, since there were signs of it and it's so improbable of a guy like me really having a loyal woman by my side that I thought "it only can be God. I'm an otaku loser, a perv, an idiot, get easily unemployed, lack social skills, hikkikomori, anyway, it's impossible someone like me having someone else really interested". I talked with God praying to him to send a woman to help me stop sinning against chastity (I wished to stop consuming porn, hentai, even lewder ecchi and stuff, I wished to stop lusting over women around me) and it really happened, but I've told him that if a woman weren't a good solution in His point of view, He should do as He desires... I can't say I'm totally recovered from all of my years of sin, but I'm way better than we first talked, for sure. Then... I'm telling you all of that because I can tell you now that nowadays I can see how God really loves humanity, how we can have a relationship with Him and that He's open to listen to all of your sorrows if you wish as well. Now I can see it's not only about people lying and robbing others, it's about reality and purpose. Theology, philosophy, ethics, good practices, love your neighbors... Anyway, religion is about love and justice, so you can be loved. Not just by me as a good friend. I hope you can also have a wife if you truly wish for that (also God) or at least have some greater purpose that fills your heart. I'm sure that if you invest your mind and heart on it, it'll result in good fruits for you and even your family. Maybe not the way you want, but in a good way.
Sorry if I'm disturbing you with that topic, but I really felt I should at least try to inspire you as I wished to be inspired years ago. Also sorry for my absence all this time.
Well, I married in January 2023, however, I couldn't still get a stable money source, so yeah, I'm struggling a lot with financies, especially because I live in one of the worst places on Brazil to actually get a job wihtout much experience on specific jobs or a lot of specific courses or... people who might help you get into companies or governamental departments. About her, well, she's autistic and has severe monthly cicles, so she's unable to work outside home, so she actually goes live almost every day. Even though she doesn't make much money doing that, the amount she's getting is increasing every month, so I hope someday she can do a good money out of it. Right now, my mom and friends are helping as well.
Anyway, I was quite away from anime, manga, novels and even games those years, but I am returning little by little, trying to appreciate stuff with deeper meaning, so I won't just go crazy... If I try to consume stuff that are just "fun", I'll feel like I'm wasting time, if you know what I mean.
Thata not cool :( wishing you this year less stress and an happier life ^^
