General Emptiness

It's beautiful and personal. Evocative. I Love it. More!

Where do you live, by the way?

edit : to add something somewhat (?) constructive... Funnily enough stations make me feel whole... Because I feel all those people have something in common, something I share, getting away, what from doesn't matter but what matters is the in between, the pause before the rush of life has to start again, because stations to me aren't part of the city, they are already a part of another place...

 

I like your style Earthtocarrie, and look forward to more.

 

surrounded by dull metal and fake beauty milled through by the hopelessly ugly- given some sort of false hope by the plastic. Generic in every way they are adorned no less than what they deserve and project. i look around and realize i never felt apart and i don't need to because i wont
and its easier to let go of being let go of
when its not the circles that i need. i am mine.

 

I <3 Singapore.

 

Another wonderful writer!

 

Your writing is wonderful! Personally on the subject of your writing, I too, feel empty sometimes. There are some days I walk in the city, hoping to feel alive---to feel the rush of the city, of life. But instead, I come home feeling as dead as ever.

Sometimes in my life, I feel alive---so alive, that I cannot stop smiling and jumping around. But most other times, I get swamped with the weighty, heaviness of life. It is always either my environment, my thoughts, or people that I see that evoke this sense of numbness within me.

I've felt like i'm living purely on inspiration sometime---a desire, a desperateness to see the beauty of life---when I see things that threaten to break my mentality of life.

I suppose it's inner strength that allows one to live on?

 

Geylang is awesome. I love how law abiding your cities ghettos and criminals are. It's also a beautiful parody to the rest of your gorgeous city.

Mostly I love it for the wide variety of food, and sim lim square, and the singapore party girls, and eating frog, REAL Indian food (instead of anglicised indian food) and the prices of taxies, and the hotel rooms at raffles.

 

I completely relate to this. I used to joke to my friends that I was bipolar (was worse as a teen for obvious reasons).

 

wow, very beautiful earthtocarrie.
I know that exact feeling...

 

Feeling of worth

It is the feeling of worth which suffers in the modern society where we tend to get lost in the anonymity of architecture and alienated by the way we live and interact. Our worth depends upon how efficient we are as co-workers and friends and efficiency is no measure of real worth. True artistic performance and the love of God is ignored and looked upon as weak in a society ridden by the need of conformity, where the proud rules by his popularity and ability to change. It is sad. It is a good thing the good Lord does not change. In His mind we are worth something by raising questions and by having The Son in mind.

 

maybe early next year sometime in the second month.

 

I am touched by your words earthtocarrie. I know exactly what you mean. When you can't relate to people, the more of them there is around the lonelier you feel. Everyone going about, living their lives, it just reminds you of what you are missing.

You have the forum now though
