Late Night Ramble 1
That unbearable question: Who am I today? It's more like, perhaps, who do I want to be? Or who should I be acting as? Or should I be acting at all? And this is all really just a silly game, isn't it? But I'm forced to play anyway because we all just need an answer. Without one we're lost. We have no meaning, or at least believe we don't. And perhaps we don't, but we'll never really know for sure. Either way the feeling in my stomach has not settled and I am left with this blatant misunderstanding of myself and my means here like (and I hope this is true) a lot of youth today. It's out of my control. As much as I'd like to believe that I can hold destiny in my small, pale hands I cannot and am forced, like the rest of the human world, to remain faithful to a cause or being for those questions I cannot answer myself. Does this all sound like jibberish? I'm not sure if I'm making sense. Ok. Done rambling and thank you for reading.

Realization of Self is one of the most challenging, most important, and somehow most overlooked aspects of our Human experience. It's a process. We wear a cloak of how we want people to perceive us, and try to hide the traits we deem undesirable or not useful. It is when we shed this cloak that we can start to accept who we truly are. Once we can look deep into ourselves and see that we are indeed only wearing a cloak whose fabric is Fear, we can recognize that fear. We can begin to move past our fear and begin to exist in a plane of Love. This love – love for self and equal love for others – can help propel us to a further understanding of who we truly are.
And once we start to figure that out, we can begin to work on the problem of what it is we're all doing here.
