[23] Shortest, Most Amazing Side Note You'll Ever Want To Read

[edit: Talk about time changing your perspective...yeesh...]

Ok so I'm actually in the middle of reading a book but I had to stop and write a little something because once again I'm blown away. Life After Death the burden of truth by Deepak Chopra should be read by everyone everywhere. I don't care how blanketed or ignorant that statement may sound. If you've ever read my blogs you see me ranting about so many things that all seem to branch off into some random question that seems to either make absolutely no sense or maybe seem vaguely familiar. Well I've literally said things in past blogs that I've read in this book practically word for word. Thoughts that I thought were so crazy and so unanswerable are being answered, or at least addressed, because I'm not alone. If you've ever had a question about the meaning of life, what happens when you die, how you can fulfill your "purpose," or why you may doubts aspects of your religion then I urge you to read the hell out of this book. Read passages over and over and meditate on them. I swear its like the second I'm about to crash and think there is no hope, bam, something like this hits me and again I'm allowed the opportunity to take something and grow. I'm not saying this is a cure all to any and everything you may think of and its not meant to be. It does however provide for the open mind. It doesn't condemn or demean any religion but instead parallels and questions. Buy the book without a second thought, I'm reading it from the library and I'm still buying it when I'm done. By now you get it, I believe this is an amazing book and I'm gonna go back to reading.

[22] Just That Much More Left Unanswered

Current mood: simply starving to feel safe
I think I'm going to begin my slow but steady path back onto the road of unique just like everyone else. Good news though, I don't have to be depressed or pessimistic anymore so basically, I'm no longer a bitch. Its definitely true that when you lose, or i guess in this case maybe forsake and confuse?, love part of your soul dies with it. Quite simply, I'm tired of stress, thinking, and all the other crap that keeps me awake and tense. It's not me. She won't really talk to me and I can't help that. I send some stupid ass way of explaining myself at probably an incredibly weird and awkward time, and I really hate putting myself on the "how ridiculous can I look" line. So fuck it. I must still have something of a soul or good center because I did actually feel bad for this fat chick I saw on true life. I know I won't get what I really want from resorting back to my ways in the past, but what the hell is stopping me? The only thing I've been letting make me feel all this bullshit is me, so I'll change back. Thank God I'm out of school now and it will be that much easier not having to go and hope she'll show up or be in a flirtatious mood or something. I hate to try this semi isolation method. Little recourse is left though and I'm tired of feeling so fucked up about it all. Unfortunately I'm too old and set in my ways to put on the "everything's happy and ok cloak" that religion wants to provide. Things can always get worse and I never have anything to complain about. "Love" I guess then really isn't that important. It can be, it can be amazing and meaningful and yada blah dee dah. If things are in the way and nothing is being solved then its almost less than important. It kills me how I can see kids on Juvies who have moms just as psychotic as mine and have it worse off. I hear stories from my step mom about getting rapped her entire kid life while her mom sat by and even blamed it on her. I see this fat chick on tv who's so hurt and mentally fucked because of the comments people like me make. I watch all these war movies recently, people dieing for nothing, families destroyed. And I have the audacity to carry on and on about a feeling in my stomach and restless thoughts? Priorities right. Must be the human condition to bitch no matter what. That's what makes me a terrible person more than anything else. Worrying about love, probably some misconstrued folded back on itself and slapped around self centered love, instead of finding ways to spread it. It is admittedly really hard to let go of caring about something though when you don't really feel connected to people. Like that fake face is necessary in every conversation. You get to feel guilty about the other half of your personality in one group or another. I can't do it anymore though, not that I was even able to do it well enough to be believable. I'm not fake no matter how far things are in the past, no matter how much I could "repent", nothing changes who I am. I really want to know what it is that truly makes people. Forms their personalities and is responsible for every small detail. The people who grow up having it the "best" can fall/rise just as hard and fast as some ghetto dweller. All these religious people that are so nice and caring get me the most. Does that just happen? Do they work at it and just think some of the crap that I'm always saying? Would some be as strong morally and mentally if they were in the same situations as some terrible sinners were early in life? I'm losing all faith in humanity because it feels like I'm the only one with ten million questions with ten million people all willing to look the other way and disappear into rut that is more and more undoubtedly a misuse and sham of a life. Fear. People apparently fear what they don't know right? So then why is there no drive to know everything you can? I don't like being confused, pumping out new blogs all the time, especially since they don't seem to connect with anyone anymore. Maybe it won't be such a terrible thing for the world to end in 2012. I don't know if God can get frustrated, but this current planet does seem like a valid situation. Who knows what the future holds, for now though I'm taking back my old flow that got me through everything then and will now. It's a lonely place, but its real. And this way it protects the ones I can't figure out how to "correctly" care about.  Fuck, gotta love the headaches that start to kick in. Before I get cross eyed, ya, I'm done.
