in the midst of feeling really really miserable halfway through my deployment shift on fri, i ad an enlightening article. it laments the present mood of tragic that lingers in the air for so many people. especially people of our generation. the generation that our elders wish us to think are'the privelaged group'. but that very same gen is the one that dwells in absolutely sadness for big parts of their life and use alcohol and other instant gratification to exit from the whirpool. i was thinking, man that sounds like me!
being constantly afraid. to have two personas. one for work and social life. the other for my own inner soul. other than in front of the closest, barely is the true side seen. usually it's the cocky motor mouth that is at the front of the shop. but that's a lie. so to those who say blogs are narcisstic, you bet. it's meant for one to vent his own emotions, so of course. yep.
looking at my playlist, gosh, it's dark and sad. other than taste for music, i think it's a reflection of your innermost. the question then: is it possible to merge your inner self with the self you present to others? to be happy and confident but inside...
for whatever reasons we all have,i think the ultimate root, like the article said, it's loneliness. not literally. man, i have enough friends and company. i am so grateful for all of it. but loneliness is a state of mind. when you have untold secrets, you feel lonely. when you have shameful fears, you feel lonely. when you have unrevealed loves, you feel lonely. unfullfilled dreams, you feel lonely. and the author answers me: when you are alone, do not feel lonely. it's two cmpletely different entireties. and that answered my 'if's.
unexpected calls, and messages from friends remind me i'm not alone. never. now it's time to remind myself, to not be lonely. for whatever reasons.
whatever. i am satisfied.

Look no further
by Dido
I might have been a singer
Who sailed around the world
A gambler who wins milions
And spent it all on girls
I might have been a poet
Who walked upon the moon
A scientist who would tell the world
I discovered something new
I might have loved a king
Been the one to end a war
A criminal who drinks champagne
And never could be caught
But among your books
Among your clothes
Among the noise and fuss
I've let it go
I can't stop
And catch my breath
And look no further
For happiness
And I will not
Turn again
Cause my heart
Has found it's home
Everyone i'll never meet
And the friends
I wont now make
The adventures that they could have been
And the risks i'll never take
But among your books
Among your clothes
Among your noise
And fuss i've let it go
I can't stop
And catch my breath
And look no further
For happiness
And I will not
Turn again
Cause my heart
Has found it's home

lucky
by Jason Mraz
Do you hear me?
Talking to you
Across the water
Across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky
Oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ohhhohhhohhhohhohhohhhohh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you, I promise you I will
Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through the trees
Move so pretty, you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ohhhohhhohhhohhohhohhhohh
Ohhhohhhohhhohhohhohhhohhohhohhohh
