We live in a world that is full of confusion. We spend all of our lives chasing something, whether its money, a spouse, family, career, dreams, friendships etc. Some of us lose something to chase. Some of us wake up and dont know why or what to do. The world tells us to go to work, or class or both so we do. But it does not change or answer the question, Why?. What are we as a species, a planet, really in pursuit of? We have built a world based on material and selfish desire. Now what? I for one feel disconnected from everything and everyone around me. As if a scene is taking place and im in the background watching it all happen. For some people this feeling does not present any conflicts, but for others they lose touch with being a human being all together. Its one thing to lose touch with people or society, but it is dangerous to lose touch with yourself. I see people all day, and speak to no one, but i at least speak to myself to make sure im fine if no one else will. My heart goes out. Because i know what it is like to want to no longer have to wake up and ask yourself why or what. I say this to encourage people to connect, and foster connections between those in your daily life, because we live in a society where no matter what you do, or how many people like your IG posts, we need genuine connections with each other in order to survive. Say hello to that guy you walk past everyday at work and barely look up to fake smile at. Hold a conversation with the clerk at the gas station that already knows what kinda black and milds you like before you ask. If nothing else, find a child or a person in your own family who needs support and be that to them, you will be amazed at what you learn, and the value your life has when others value you,
