Electric Feel

Stumbled upon this, and can relate to her dissatisfaction with the world in general. I've felt like this before.

"life is this complicated mess.
once you think you have anything figured out.
everything changes, and you have to wonder...
is it all worth it.
why even try anymore if everything changes so quickly.
since when did everything become so disposable.
or have we always used people and thrown them away like tissues.

i don't know what to do anymore.

it feels as though we've lost our humanity.
or maybe we never had this "humanity"

kurt vonnegut once wrote of how a purpose of our lives are to love whoever is around to be loved, but how can we do this when we never have those true lasting human connections.
we pretend, we go through the motions, but do we ever really connect.

some of us run.
we run away, but we just keep bumping into everything all over again.
nothing changes, people don't.
we have lost the human touch.
we have lost the human emotion.
i write, but i don't always feel.
i guess, what i'm trying to get at...is that we don't allow ourselves to feel anymore, we're too scared. we're too jaded. we're too....cold.

the fire's faded, and all that's left is a few smoldering embers."

I see the world, and all of its injustices, and feel compelled to change my life. So that I can change someone else's. I have made it a goal to help one person before I die. Like radically change their life. If I can do that, I can die a happy man, knowing the world I left behind is a better one than the one I inherited.

Our children, and theirs will inherit this world, and I will see to it that the world is a better place by then.

It is not what we do that causes us to suffer; it is the disconnection between what we do and what we should do.

Today, get going on one thing you know you need to do in order to be happy but haven't done due to procrastination.
