I wish i could convey to others what it's like to be a nostalgia addict; it's not even times long gone that i crave, but bittersweet catharsis. Where has this pensive, introspective, wonder gone? I long to enjoy a sunset with someone ive never met, and may never meet again. Instead i find myself mired in profane and vulgar interactions. Am i at fault for all this?

>>0b208b8d @veinglory@freebeerextremist.com pretty deep posts so people are scared, even I dont know if I should write anything, but seems like honest pure hearted bait Reminds me of elementary school when my friend was sad about Christmas time not having the magic it used to have, was it his fault? Maybe a little, but there's forces out there re-purposing our life force and a lot of that whimsy and wonder is tied up in it. There's times where I see people talk like this: "It's just _____" It's just the sunset, why are you crying? It's just growing up, everyone gets this way It's just whatever it is, and I think that kind of thinking could be our fault. Instead of being amazed and curious, the mind reduces things into bite-sized grown up pieces because honestly who has time for any of that? And yeah the spectacle is pretty funny, one of the more obvious things it's doing to harvest that life of ours
