For days — or weeks, even — you play with it constantly! Can’t get enough of it. Gradually, though, you start to play with other toys, too. Now, those toys might not work well together with whatever game you’re playing, but you still choose that new toy to be included in these games you’ve always played, even if it means that you may get less playing time. Other toys get added and discarded, but that one special, now no longer new toy, you still grab and play with every day. That’s kinda the same idea — you choose that person every day even though there are tons of other people you could be with. And even when you add in other family and life and work, you bring them along because you love them and want to include them. So, you choose to love them day after day even after the shiny newness wears off.” —u/momofeveryone5 “I knew it, too, at 21. And I’m sure many people did. But stupid me kept putting it off because I used the excuse that I was so ‘broke,’ and I’ll do it later, I’ll do it next year, or whatever; I kept putting it off. Also, stupid me didn’t stop and think that even if I put just a little bit of money away from age 21, I would be a millionaire right now.” —u/Commercial-Fault-131 —u/buttonsarethebomb —u/Papegaaiduiker
