The weak and the brittle are everywhere these days, I see them constantly. With so many wrinkles appearing in the fabric of our lives, it's easy to imagine one more wrinkle breaking the spirit and the backs of those fragile human beings. The pressure from society has created millions of characters who really no longer know who they are. Just personas...no soul.
It is there somewhere, but hidden, or disconnected. It becomes like a ghost in the corner of the eye. People knowing life could or cm should be better, but unwilling to do what is necessary to make it so. Instead, behaving according to the programmed conditioning, doing what they have been trained to do, what others do. To fit in with the mold in which they have been cast, behaving as if that is the only choice they have.
This is the way I am...
Maybe that's where the term soul searching comes from..the feeling of having lost one's soul.
Tell me... if this is the way you are and if you could choose to be different, what would you change?
Interesting question. There are many things, but the thing that perhaps comes to mind is that I would like to feel passionate about something. I like a lot, find many things interesting, but there is nothing that really grabs my attention, that I geek out on.
Maybe you're just waiting for the right project at the right time. With a young child, you have a lot on your plate right now.
