Surrounded
JOURNALS

It's been in front of me the whole time.
Just need to focus.
Our thoughts surround us, creating our world but also distracting us from what's there.
Take away the chatter, objects, senses. It's space, we're just on a blank plane consumed by our minds.
Our thoughts and feelings are true but not to everyone else except ourselves. Although sometimes we can be on the same wavelength we’re for the most part on our own. To each, there is another story. We create things seemingly from nothing when we put our minds to it, how? Just by luck or chance?
We can do so much yet are quite limited on this plane because there's only so much we can understand in-depth.
Focusing on it, I can feel it. I know I'm not alone. Thinking the unthinkable and believing what we can't see:
Balance.
Running on a treadmill in an empty room, going nowhere. On a train going 100 miles per hour yet so still.
What's a cousin to a line, circle, or sphere?
Imagination is powerful. The only things impossible are the things you deem that. Fearing change yet our world forces it.
The mind can be mysterious like running through a maze with terrifying twists and unexpected turns. Never knowing if you made the right choice until you hit a wall. Sometimes it’s okay to stop and think but not get consumed by it.
Time is an illusion, we need it to make sense of what we don’t know. Living in stillness can drive a person mad yet constant motion can be equally as exhausting.
Searching for peace can never be found until you realize there’s something tranquil about the chaos, the current should never be something to avoid.
Dread.
The world continues to progress but our internal progression is what affects us. Others can impact us but it’s solely up to us to determine how it will affect our way of living
Being.
Why’s a pyramid like a ladder?
You can replicate a lot of things but not a soul. No one can ever be you but that’s so vague when you have no idea what a “you” is. Unraveling the answers like your favorite candy bar.
Everything is happening simultaneously but our consciousness struggles to keep up. Too far ahead, behind, or in between. Existence is a vibration dressed up for a show.
The question is: Are you ready to perform?
