darling, won't you keep me close?


Have you ever noticed that humans have made it so difficult and complicated to "survive" in this world? It's a vicious circle. You go to school, and try really hard, so that you can get into a good college, and then you try really hard at college to get a good job, and then you try really at your job, so you can make money. And then your kids do the same thing. And everyone just keeps on doing this and no one even stops to think why they're doing it any more. Everyone just does it because it's what you are supposed to do. And like, before, when the human race had just started, the goal was to just survive. People just lived. I mean, that's really matters, right? Survival. Because after you die, it doesn't matter what college you went to.

it's such a shame


We're all walking around with these glossy eyes. "I'm just tired," we say. But you know what? It's bullshit. Yes, we are tired, but it's not all from lack of sleep. We are tired of waking up with nothing to look forward to, tired of going to bed exhausted after doing a million things we find no enjoyment in doing. We're tired of this void, this emptiness that looms over us even though we're surrounded by dozens of people. So why can't we just say it? Humans are so afraid to look into each other's eyes and say "I am unhappy, I am broken, I am hopeless and fallible." We've been conditioned to associate pain with weakness, sadness and coldness, loneliness with unworthiness, difference with disease, as if these feelings are contagious, as if ambivalence is something not to be felt but to be feared. Well, I say screw all of that. Screw forced smiles and polite handshakes and "I'm fine, thank you." Screw the fear of crying in a public place, screw the fake chipper voice, screw the lies we spit out to cover up our problems. We are humans. We are meant to feel. To feel everything and to feel it all openly. We are not metal - we are flesh and bone. Our boiled blood courses through our old, clammy hands. We are so intricate an beautiful and we should never hide our human parts, because if we do, then what's left to show?
