I am curious as to why people feel that when, in discussion with one another, rather than empathize with another's misfortunes/problems, they would rather try and compete in the sense of attempting to have it worse off...This type of mentality is what creates such a negative outlook in so many aspects all of the time...
This has been so emotionally and physically draining that I am left absolutely speechless as to how I feel...more or less, my life outside of architecture is really a mess right now because I don't have the time to live it. Of course this seems to be a question of prioritizing, but when it boils down to the essential issue at hand, that choice is made for me...
On my walk back from my final presentation for this project today, I passed four people I hadn't seen in three weeks because of my work, and had a brief conversation with each. The result of these conversations led to me know that in order to truly be a good friend to someone, you need to put yourself into their shoes and think about why they are as they are in every single aspect of their life, both with character plusses and faults...This will creating a deeper connection with whom ever you want to know in any way, and will allow for you to really take a new look on life itself.
A lot of people have been asking me why I am still up after the last few months and the little, if any, sleep I have had, and the answer is simply that while I was "alive" for the entire time, I failed to actually be alive, and right now, I am living for the few seconds I have before my body overtakes my mind once again and forces me to sleep...
It's wednesday night and it feels like thursday of next week...The last three days have been one, and it is only an empty feeling...
The only feeling left after something like this is one of emptiness, because how do you conclude three weeks of impossibly intense labor in a manner that allows for it to be climactic?
How is it that there is always a good side? There just is not...
and as good as sitting here for a night without architecture work is, it is completly devoid of so much...
