RE: PAY Attention!
I think maybe we do hole up and we get to feeling alone
I used to think I was so alone haha, at least haven't met many people in my town
I think all humans are creative. I think it's beaten out of us
I think you're right, but at least we realize it. Plus now we can show people how we lost it, and how to get it back
I know it's something that I miss when I have no outlet for it.
I get depressed and it affects all areas of my life. I've found singing in the car, writing, yoga, running, and a few others are my go to outlets, I'm sure I'll branch out as I go, don't wanna get bored ;)
Yeah, I've noticed that theme in your writing, and I've seen a few of your comments around on other posts. You seem to have been trying to find solutions for pain and sadness. That's been the same for me too. You get so tired of feeling down, and you realize there's no pill to fix it, there's no quick fix. You just have to figure it out. And I think I never did realize how rewarding the journey itself could be. I was so busy trying to find a way out of my sadness or whatever that I never realized what a learning experience I was right in the middle of. I don't think we're meant to be ecstatic level happy all the time. It's not beneficial to evolution that we would be. We need to a little struggle and a little strife to give us purpose and motivation and all that. And yeah, like you've said, it's good once we've lived through it enough to learn from it that we share. I hold so many thoughts simultaneously. I've struggled with depression all my life. I want to say fuck it all and give up and I want to cry with joy at the same time. I'm aware of it constantly. And I think I'm just someone who really does feel things. Maybe we all are, but I realize it. I just kinda roll with it and try to learn from the experience of all that my mind and body tells me. I think maybe once you realize how little you truly do understand, how little you know, that that sense of awe maybe never goes. And it's mixed with a little fear and dread too. There's no going back and there's no safety net and this is life. Every second of it. It's boggling to the mind and the senses. And my silly little mind is trying to give it words. It's funny really.
