Then
,
as
we
grow
older
and
enter
middle
age
,
something
else
begins
to
change
.
Our
energy
level
drops
.
Our
identity
solidifies
.
We
know
who
we
are
and
we
accept
ourselves
,
including
some
of
the
parts
we
aren
t
thrilled
about
.
102
And
,
in
a
strange
way
,
this
is
liberating
.
We
no
longer
need
to
give
a
fuck
about
everything
.
Life
is
just
what
it
is
.
We
accept
it
,
warts
and
all
.
We
realize
that
we
re
never
going
to
cure
cancer
or
go
to
the
moon
or
feel
Jennifer
Aniston
s
tits
.
And
that
s
okay
.
Life
goes
on
.
We
now
reserve
our
ever
-
dwindling
fucks
for
the
most
truly
fuck
-
worthy
parts
of
our
lives
:
our
families
,
our
best
friends
,
our
golf
swing
.
And
,
to
our
astonishment
,
this
is
enough
.
This
simplification
actually
makes
us
really
fucking
happy
on
a
consistent
basis
.
And
we
start
to
think
,
Maybe
that
crazy
alcoholic
Bukowski
was
onto
something
.
Don
t
try
.
103
So
Mark
,
What
the
Fuck
Is
the
Point
of
This
Book
Anyway
?

This
book
will
help
you
think
a
little
bit
more
clearly
about
what
you
re
choosing
to
find
important
in
life
and
what
you
re
choosing
to
find
unimportant
.
105
I
believe
that
today
we
re
facing
a
psychological
epidemic
,
one
in
which
people
no
longer
realize
it
s
okay
for
things
to
suck
sometimes
.
I
know
that
sounds
intellectually
lazy
on
the
surface
,
but
I
promise
you
,
it
s
a
life
/
death
sort
of
issue
.
106
Because
when
we
believe
that
it
s
not
okay
for
things
to
suck
sometimes
,
then
we
unconsciously
start
blaming
ourselves
.
We
start
to
feel
as
though
something
is
inherently
wrong
with
us
,
which
drives
us
to
all
sorts
of
overcompensation
,
like
buying
forty
pairs
of
shoes
or
downing
Xanax
with
a
vodka
chaser
on
a
Tuesday
night
or
shooting
up
a
school
bus
full
of
kids
.
107
This
belief
that
it
s
not
okay
to
be
inadequate
sometimes
is
the
source
of
the
growing
Feedback
Loop
from
Hell
that
is
coming
to
dominate
our
culture
.

The
idea
of
not
giving
a
fuck
is
a
simple
way
of
reorienting
our
expectations
for
life
and
choosing
what
is
important
and
what
is
not
.
Developing
this
ability
leads
to
something
I
like
to
think
of
as
a
kind
of
practical
enlightenment
.
109
No
,
not
that
airy
-
fairy
,
eternal
bliss
,
end
-
of
-
all
-
suffering
,
bullshitty
kind
of
enlightenment
110
On
the
contrary
,
I
see
practical
enlightenment
as
becoming
comfortable
with
the
idea
that
some
suffering
is
always
inevitable
that
no
matter
what
you
do
,
life
is
comprised
of
failures
,
loss
,
regrets
,
and
even
death
.
Because
once
you
become
comfortable
with
all
the
shit
that
life
throws
at
you
(
and
it
will
throw
a
lot
of
shit
,
trust
me
)
,
you
become
invincible
in
a
sort
of
low
-
level
spiritual
way
.
After
all
,
the
only
way
to
overcome
pain
is
to
first
learn
how
to
bear
it
.
