more

is it so wrong to always be looking for more?
in taxis and churches and cinema halls,
where people appear like they didn’t before,
with nothing but silence to fill them all.

self reflection is a good thing but too much self analysis is so exhausting. constantly questioning your own motives and how you’re being perceived and whether or not you’re being real and what’s authentic leads to such a convoluted mentality like. u don’t even know who you are cause you just end up being a case study and not a person. i just want to let myself move through the world for a moment

constantly scrutinizing your own actions and motives and thoughts also leads to a breakdown of identity.

it is impossible to form any sense of identity when you refuse to see- let alone trust- your internal motivations. if you won’t look at, trust, and nurture the stuff inside yourself, you stop seeing it as legitimate. you can’t form an authentic identity around it. you lose sight of who you are as a person.

maybe you start to see yourself not as a real person with inherent wants, interests, and personality, and begin to see only a mecha to be piloted in the most “correct” direction, with occasional flaw and failure.

getting to know yourself- and becoming more authentic to that person- means trusting that you are actually trying, that your good motives are really good motives, and that the way others perceive you will always be lesser, as a rule, than what you know about yourself.

I think I’m just tired of everyone and everything… It looks like people just comes and goes in my life… I being a person who people’s want something from me but ending up no one will be there for me… Being an extrovert and most of the time, I prefer to be alone because I don’t think so anyone will talk to me… As a young adult, I think I just need to find who am I rather than who I should be!!!

“I have come to realise it doesn’t make much sense to ponder the meaning of life; that it is a question induced by melancholy; that an answer is not really what we are looking for. Does it not disappear the minute we find joy again? Who, when finally seized by a great desire to love, to dance, to work, still wonders: what is the meaning of life?”

having a quiet life is so.. underrated. i don’t mean it in the sense that people who’re open and loud and busy aren’t important, but when our culture has significantly put somuch emphasis on the definition of success as fame, extraordinary accomplishments, greatness and importance and excessive wealth, i think there is so much power to be found in our own anonymity. in the silence of life. in not being constantly perceived, analyzed and performing for the world. in being able to take a walk, smile at strangers and just notice the world without all that noise. taking the biggest pleasure out of the smallest joys, like a cup of coffee or blowing out birthday candles. knowing that our lives don’t have to be a grand spectacle for others in order to have worth and cause a good impact.
