Hey Dudes, Progressing Dude here. I am around my late teens, doing the usual - watching movies, eating, reading and 'The occasional running through my syllabus so I can pass my senior year'. The Dude has been pretty much a hee-ro to me. He might be the most laziest in whole world, but I dig how comfortable and compassionate he is with himself.

Going through teenage is a world of pain. Fulfilling my parents ( They love me 100% by they expect it back 200%), lots to study, my looks . They say high school is cool but I didn't find to be that exactly. They say you should make memories with your peers in your final year. Bunch of assholes but there are some nice folks I would like to spend time with.

Through everything, The Dude has this comforting presence. Embodying his style and philosophies make it a lot easier to bend through the ups and downs. I don't mean solutions but accepting the absurdity around me. And, Being a dude is no one would self- apply in themselves, from where I come from. Let them have it their way, I guess.. It leaves me a lot of mental space. Donny and Walter come and go, parts anyway.

A good day abiding, Dudes..

Thankie
