when I grow up

There are a few select people who I aspire to be when I grow up and @ipratt on instagram is one of those people.  Here's one of his captions:

      social media is important. it's a big deal. spend more time on your phone and computer. that way you can develop relationships with people who know about you only what you want them to. and they won’t walk into your room when you’re in the middle of a podcast or tv show and interrupt you. and they definitely won’t ask you to run to the grocery store for them on the way home. because they live somewhere else, and you never have to be bothered by them if you don’t want to. trust me, people who live other places are way cooler than people who live near you. way cooler. and… they just get you. you have so much in common with them. so you should really surround yourself with people who see things exactly like you do, so you never have to be challenged with what you think. here’s the important part: make your life look really fun. go on at least one hike a week, and then buffer those pictures out for as long as you can. people will think you’re really adventurous.  it doesn’t really matter if you usually spend your day cooped up in your room alone, if people think you live a good life, that’s what matters. impress people. 
or don’t. i mean… you COULD just live life like normal people. you know, actually live it. 

Essentially, my life goal is to be as cool as him.

pretty pictures + an entirely unrelated sentence

Murder is a sin because the bible says "You shall not murder." (Deuteronomy 5:17) so doesn't this mean that worry is a sin since the bible says "Do not be anxious about anything" (Phillipians 4:6)?
