The Larger Thing.

[iamsquink]

Am i tired,
Or just empty?
So far disconnected from that which i call home that i can barely hear the words whispered within the wind, anymore.
My problems don't seem to be THE problem,
But symptoms of the larger thing.

The unnameable, daunting and dangerous, probably deadly
Larger thing.

Are there solutions to problems you can't see?
Are there answers

but, we're all afraid.

most problems, both personal and culturally, are deeply systemic and deeply rooted beneath the surface

...but i think i know what you feel. consider this: sometimes, you may feel as though you're empty, as though there is no life in you, but you're one of the most alive people i know, because you feel things deeper than most people do, and knowing such staggering hieghts of emotion means that the relatively uneventful times seem stagnant and flat. sometimes, i feel more empty than anyone, but i feel as though it is those times that make me feel the most alive.
