They’ll tell you, you need to be kind and forthright and aggressive and meditative and a free spirit and dependable and cautious and not be pushed around and live free or die and be helpful and put your own gas mask on first and be spiritual and religious and empirical and scientific and hate this and vault that and play to your talents and always be learning and get enough sleep and know that the essence of life is pain and know that there is no essence to life and be strong and self aware and adaptive and skeptical and live for pleasure and live with restraint and let go of the past and know your roots and know that things are out of balance and accept change and know your place and respect this and defile that and be vulnerable and be confident and pay attention and use common sense and break down constructs and love your country and hate your country and take psychedelics and treat your body as a temple and be understanding and happy and outraged and collected and emotionless and chill and study hard and fuck the system and not give a fuck and give a fuck and be fabulous and permissive and fed up and live without any steady beliefs and be casual and do it but not too much and be proud of yourself and be violent and clean and communal and speak up for yourself and be healthy and believe in liberty and live without borders and have strong borders and perform your duty and be authentic and fluid and defined and well read and fake it ‘til you make it and live each day as it was your last and take care of yourself and enjoy yourself and listen to your body and not kill yourself and don’t let anyone stand in your way and know when to accept and when to reject — to know like they know — at any given time.
