*NOT* enlisting in the United States Military…
My problem is, civilian life is just so boring, so I need to find something greater to strive towards or do, and I was seriously contemplating enlisting in the military for years after my peace corps service, but inevitably realized that it is definitely not worth it whatsoever.
You can just treat yourself like a warrior in your hometown instead, and live a monastic, disciplined, Soldier-like lifestyle.
