Apologies if this is a repeat post. I’m not as avid of a Lemmy user as most, probably. 

Someone not long ago asked what makes people unreasonably unhappy or angry. I wanted to flip that over and see what people are looking forward to?

No really topic here, just sharing, uplifting and learning. Maybe a post like this could help spark an interest in something for someone else. 

Me? Other than watching my family grow and me growing along with them, I would have to say I’m excited about learning.

More specifically, recent life has made it relevant for me to learn about solar off-grid systems. Though I know I have a lot of learning to do, I look forward to putting the knowledge to practice sometime in the near future. 

How about you?

Lots!

My co-ed soccer team lost a heartbreaker of a championship game, but goddamn we've improved and I'm excited for next season!

My softball team is wrapping up our season tonight and as we've all enjoyed each other we've started talking about what to do as a group for the offseason, so I'm excited to see how that turns out!

My friend and I have plans to work on his cabin in the fall with fewer mosquitos etc and that's always been a blast.

The international film fest is coming to town soon and even in a down year, there's a dozen that look pretty fun to me. Plus, a few friends I don't see as often as I'd like (they're busy starting families etc) usually catch a few together which is great for the soul!

Oh, and one of my film fest favourites, Deathgasm, has a sequel coming out soon and it's great to see an absurd but wonderful indie flick do well. I am stoked to get high as balls and watch the hell out of that.

Then it's the winter and I'll take a lot of mornings off to ski and work the afternoon, which is an amazing combination.

Work's paying for a few courses in the fall and winter semesters so I'm quite stoked to up my skills for free!

And finally, kind of dumb but I've started persona 5 royal, it's my first JRPG in maybe a decade and it's just been delightful so I'm pretty excited to take that journey.

Your life reads like it is the good kind of busy. Not the corporate phone ringing all the time kind, but the wholesome living it up kind. Love it!

Thanks, that really means a lot as that's pretty much exactly how I try to live!
