It's odd, watching the world explode.
I apologize for my lack of activity the past few days if anyone has wanted to get in touch with me. I haven't been feeling too well, though it's nothing along the lines of a flu or a virus. I've just been thinking, I guess.
Why do we keep secrets? What is the use of keeping our hearts locked away? Could you tell me, please? Could you tell me everything?
I just don't understand. It's so stupid. But I shouldn't be talking, because after all, I'm guilty of the very same crime.
Crimes crimes crimes. And justice. And crimes. Could you tell me, please, why we must indulge ourselves so disgustingly with such corporations? Why we, exclusively in comparison to all other people, have the right to choose what is right and what is wrong? We know more of it - surely we do, we've lived in it and breathed it in and been its victims - but we are not the law. The law can choose, as it is a man-made machine created simply so we wouldn't have to deal with the human aspects of those concepts, but we have no right, as human beings, to judge other human beings, despite doing this on a daily basis and from the very first moment we come into contact with another. And at the same time, we cannot judge ourselves either, because if we did there would be no order. And so enter the businesses, these things we call trials and prisons and punishments, the most powerful of which can take away another's life all in the name of justice, and it doesn't matter what crimes these businesses themselves commit, what hypocrisies they throw at the world, because they are machines. They are inhuman. They are blind.
Why would you wish to be such a thing?
...
I'm going to drown. I need a distraction.
Tell me, what is the one question we ourselves only know the answer to, yet must ask everyone else in order to discover it?
[[ooc: Um, yeah, Edge is kind of cracking under the system - all in English because she doesn't feel like herself. I'm off my hiatus now, so um, hope everyone's been doing well! ♥ Should I continue to tag in the logs I was in? Since it's been a while since they started I'm not quite sure, and I don't want to be a bother to anyone.]]
