These days I'm facing these human interactions and watching their reactions and everything is just confusing. So befuddling. Like.. did mankind become something that I no longer understand? Did a whole Earth of people just suddenly become something that I no longer know or am I the one who changed? Am I the one who remained the same? Or.. not remained the same.

I can't seem to brain why and what prompts them to react or behave or speak or think in the ways they do. There seemed to have been this huge change in mankind that I was just somehow left out of. Can someone please explain to me??

Where did these high levels of selfishness and superficiality come from? What happened to love and sincerity and kindness? What happened to things that matters? Is this just it though? This is how people are now? This is how everyone behaves now? Is this how I should be too to adapt to this society?

Because the price for standing out is being alone.

But I guess I'm not one to speak,
I'm not all of those things. 

"I'm tryin' to make it clear, that getting half of you just ain't enough"

Have been feeling this double fold these days. Don't really remember those days when I meant just a little bit more to some people. Only less. And less. 

I've been telling myself that I need to get my shit together since I came back. But I think its almost 3 months already and I haven't gotten my shit together yet (the day might never come actually, I'll just move onto another) but I think I'm reaching my threshold. 

No doubt that it being December, and nearing Christmas, makes me extra mindful of it. It's like a social construct that's been seeping into my mind; that a new year should be a fresh start. But from that midnight, to the next minute, life exists in the exact same way. Trying to wash my brain up a little, but there's no soap that works well enough, no bleach that's strong enough. Only more and more dirt. 

Nevertheless, I feel this ever existing sense of okay-ness in the midst of all the not okay, although everything is generally not okay. I feel these small moments in the day where I'm just glad to be where I am, despite the extremely messed up bigger picture. Sigh. Okay. It's going to be the same rant over and over again so let's not.

Pretending you don't need anyone."
