As mentioned recently, my purpose in life is to help to better the world through solving issues that affect my community, my society and the world I live in. My vision in life is to feel more energised every day, than the day before, and I feel really happily tired whenever I go to sleep.
However, I sense there are some distractions in my life, which I am not sure how can I solve them.
My side interest is watching sports and hip hop music. Especially old-school hip hop.

So I wear something like them - white T-shirts, basketball shorts or jeans, a jersey, a hat, shoes, etc.
I somehow really want to wear large white T-shirts (hmm... ok), long basketball shorts (hmm... ok too?) all the time, but what really worries me is that I love wearing sneakers, basketball jerseys and baseball caps. I can't have too many of them, though, especially those sneakers and hats. Let's just say I like them so much, I wear them all the time and I try my best to maintain them in tip-top condition, but I know I'm wearing out all my shoes till they're wearing out. And, to be honest, there are cheaper styles to get that are more popular.
But whenever I try these cheaper styles, I don't feel comfortable, and I don't feel truly and really Geordie.
I think it is right to say my jersey and shoes-wearing hobby is a 'waste of time, effort and money'. But this sort of thing energies me, I got lots of stories to tell about different sports teams, and I love lots of different colours too!
Putting this to a larger context other than clothes and shoes, well, I'm very easily attracted to have material stuff. I often get lost and distracted over my goals, they seem like resisting forces against my progress towards solving some societal issues that seem more important than my own ostensible, illogical struggles with not having and owning some things.
While shoes wear out, dreams do not. One can also do good deeds in rags.
However, at least at the moment, I cannot reconcile my thoughts and my subconscious feelings of expressing myself boldly, enabling me to do many more good things cheerfully.
I wonder - how can I stay real while not being too bothered with my visual style. Is my own style, to me, a visual affirmation which I am so unique, from the manner in what I wear, that I do indeed have the creative tools for the issues that come to me?
