Random thoughts of an anonymous man
I am going to start today's blog out with a quote:
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent- Eleanor Roosevelt
Something for everyone to think about.
Okay I want to get this post in, before I forget it or lose memory of the feeling. So I watched Lost in Translation several weeks ago and really enjoyed it. The movie is fun for those who just watch the distractions on the screen and listen to the dialogue, but there are also some pretty weighty emotions beneath the characters as well. The young married girl ignored and mistreated (for lack of a better word) by her husband. The older man confused and lost in life merely going through the motions.... involved in an empty relationship and feeling very alone. The spark that is created between the two as they enjoy their friendship. Then the week ends. They both knew what was coming.... Their goodbye is classic. It reminds me of summer camp. You meet someone and a fierce friendship ensues. You spill out yourself to this person, but all too soon it is over. You say your goodbyes.... That terrible terrible feeling in your stomach as you realize you will never see that person again.... It is too bad. It is part of life..... That's all.
Wow, has it really been over a month since I last wrote..... Time away from the office and vacation will do that I suppose. I have had a lot of time to think and over analyze this life of mine...."I will go in this way and I find my own way out... I won't tell you to stay....." So many things to say that they just kind of ooze out as rambling gibberish. "I will bring water.... why won't you ever be glad...."
Okay so I saw an "old" "friend" last week and man did it bring back memories. My brain kicked into overdrive with all of those what could have been, should have been thoughts that I have written about before. This "friend" that I mistreated, so much so that to this day I still feel like I am paying penance to the karma police. I wanted to say sorry and have always wanted to, but the opportunity just hasn't presented itself.... Actually that is kind of bullshit, I am just a pud. So anyhow life goes on and I carry these thoughts around and file them away with the rest of my feelings. Isn't that pathetic (or is it sad).... a person that goes through life hiding most every feeling and many thoughts so that they won't discomfort others... Not much of a way to live, but it is the road that I choose to take.... So that is it for today. I don't feel like spilling much more.
