It so happened that I've spent the last 4 months at home. Not really at home but without an obligation to go to work every day. Very refreshing after 11 years of non-stop working, studying and running errands. Every day I take care of my newborn: feed him, play with him, sing him songs, take him for a walk. During those numerous walks lots of stupid questions pop into my head. For example today I had those.
If all of us are going to be "mirosozerzateliami", whom are we going to "sozerzat" after a while?
We all talk about connections, strings being pulled, et cetera. But aren't those feelings the biggest gift that life can offer? You live, do something and them boom; a certain glance, a phrase touches you deeply and makes the whole world light up. If we are going to constantly look for them everywhere, aren't we really becoming addicts, "feeling morfinists" in a way?
Why after trying so hard to attain this unattainable state of peace and quiet I almost reach indifference?
