Surfing my waves

I'm not here to define mediocrity. Everybody sets their own standard of what's acceptable to them. But regardless of each individual's cut off, I have noticed way too many people lately be in a relationship that clearly serves no other purpose than that of functionality. As in the relationship is set in such a pattern that it assists each party to maneuver through the daily tasks and chores of life. And nothing much beyond that. If that's all you want out of a relationship, good for you. I personally do not have any inkling to be with someone just for the formality of a functional role. I.e. provider, co-parent etc. Someone who takes care of the things in life that you either don't want to or choose not to take care of (for) yourself. There should be other support systems or paid services available to you for that. I prefer to invest my energy and time either into myself and the things that improve my personal humanity. Or even more so invest my time and energy, in essence myself, into other people who surf on the same wavelengths I am cruising on. The reciprocal exchange of energy gratifies me enough without the mandate of it coming from a formal relationship with another individual.
