I wrote this during Multimedia, and I haven't proofread it to see if it makes any sense... but here goes:
What is life?
People. Life. It is nothing like what it should be. People desire for closeness, people yearn for acceptance, and yet, the world that I see is substantially different. People far away from people, both emotionally and physically. While walking down the street, people stay out of each other's way. I can understand that, in order to avoid each other, to not get in each other's ways. However, when people are hanging out, when they are chatting, when they are communicating, they stay away. Rare is it that someone comes out and says what they are feeling. People keep what is close to them exactly that, close to them. People don't pry, people don't try to look beyond what is being presented to them, avoiding the real problems, avoiding reality. People who are truly close share both their feels, their minds, who they truly are, not who they try to appear to be. A very wise person once said "when you hug someone, the more you trust them" and trust is not a feature often found in today's society. Today, people stay away, people fear, people are scared of change, and getting to understand another's soul is the most potent form of change.
