I walk around everywhere listening to music on my Ipod.
There is a sense of disconnection from the world and a perception of looking from the outside in.
I see everyone around me moving, going about their way, almost like robots or machines just fulfilling their functions.
Do they really think about why they are here or do they just act upon needs and wants, never contemplating the world?
They all seem dead.
It's intriguing.
Since I was about eleven, I've felt a sense of disconnection from everyone, including my family.
I once was an extrovert, but a series of events at that time has changed me forever.
No matter what happens in life, good or bad, there is always something to be learned; we take what has happened and grow from it.
This concept helps me to never regret what happens in life, but instead to be thankful for it, because I believe everything happens for a reason.
I walk around observing the beautiful environment, hoping and dreaming for an understanding and a sense of love that I lost long ago.
Everyone has a story.
Every story is unique.
What's yours?

Nice Trey! I know what you mean...when you put the headphones on your in a different world as the music takes you away =)
ReplyDeleteYou have a poetic rhythm to the way you write, Trey, and you bring up some interesting tensions. Sometimes technology really serves in connecting us to other people, and sometimes it serves to disconnect us.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry for what seems like a disillusioning event that happened so early in your life. The good news is, we are all in the middle of our own stories, co-creating them along with every influence around us.
