it's not a secret anymore what you keep me around for

So I’m watching this Ewan McGregor movie on HBO that I was only mildly interested in when I saw the preview for it, that’s turned out to be slightly captivating. Could be because they just performed a scene from Hamlet. It’s now lost all value.

for nothing is either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.

Existentialism! What a fantastic philosophy. In Ecclesiasies, King Solomon lamented, “meaningless! Meaningless! Everything is meaningless!” From this sprang the inadvertent school of thought which strips humanity of any excuse to live.

Why are emotions involuntary? How can they overlap so violently? Don’t take me up. I’ll just fall down once again. An inkling of hope, a glimmer of affection, and love crashes over me in bipolar waves of silky water until the tempest of hate churns the silt from the bottom to create the murky estuary that clogs my veins.

I’m afraid, I’m alone and entirely useless.
