Bobby inspired me to finish what I started. At the lowest of my lows, I came around drinking my troubles away. Often, I heard of Bobby and my curiosity grew. Bobby’s story would change my perspective on social media, a powerful resource we overlook. Bobby used social media to his advantage, from direct messaging to going viral. It all connects somehow, social networks, resources, knowledge, you see the picture, don’t you? I quit my job although it paid well because I always wondered what I was capable of. Maybe it was a bit crazy, to quit without a nickel to spare, not knowing what to do next, but what is crazy? What defines it? Is it simply what’s outside society’s norms. Who determines what’s crazy, what isn’t. I questioned my sanity, staying up days and nights, obsessing over pattern formulas. When I heard Bobby obsessed over measurements, it helped me be kind to myself. What about my beliefs? That the things I do are relevant to my future. My visions? If nobody sees them, do they not exist.
Jung’s philosophy would save me too, suggesting our visions start invisible, nobody sees them, and with focus they appear in reality. What if I succeed, and if I fail, I still succeed for taking a chance than to have done nothing at all. Environmental psychology says people change environments and vice versa, environments change people. Thanks to Bobby, in my life I witnessed, the growth of an individual create growth in our community. I witnessed unity, although unintentional, people of every age, profession, and race, line up for a smashburger inside a dim-lit bar called the Hard Hat lounge, sending my love to the beautiful people you always find there. As I returned for a burger, I grew friendships with familiar faces, and with familiar faces and friendships, came the most transformational moments of my life. You just never know.
