Not That I Want To...
Desire & Love
No one tends to believe love is what the fairy tale says nowadays, even media wouldn't mythologize any stories. It is a new century of scepticism and a time to put your feet back on the ground.
People in a lot of civilized cities are living with their lonely heart, but they lost the ability and bravery to love. Instead of it, they let their lust and desire out to console themselves. Sleeping with different strangers every night isn't a big deal anymore; Marriage isn't an obligation of life neither.
So back to the basic, what is the meaning of love then? What we have become?
Building nothing, laying bricks.
Death & Alive
When someone we care has passed away, people tend to pray at night, and they all realised there is no such thing call miracle. Voltairianism took away the significance of God and all these intangible figures, as well as hope and faith. All in the sudden, life has lost its meanings and time has lost its law of continuity.
Living in a vain shell with no soul, we started to know that "death" is no longer appropriate to apply on the other side of the binary system of "alive", but it is just part of our life... and it's everywhere.
Somewhere & Nowhere
Don't believe in anything, because we don't want to be controlled. Try to believe something, because we lost a sense of life. Where should we stand?
How do we praise love when we don't believe in it? If love is equal to stupidity and madness, then how far can we go?
How do we praise life when there's nothing worth to live? If life is equal to suffering and endurance, then how much can we take?
Stars in the sky are more beautiful in the past, but it is actually because of the pollution leads to a thinner ozonosphere, and that's why we can see them clearer.
Finding a sense of life isn't an easy task, will a minute of smile help? :)
