The Raving, Restless, and Random Roamer


Pardon me for the silly alliteration. I pretty much have no energy left to unleash a bit of creativity. Yeah, the world – and the people in it – sucks the soul out of you sometimes. Thankfully I got to meet Postmodernism back in college. He taught me to be more considerate of the truth of others, to believe that it's all just in the mind – that it's just a matter of interpretation. Even if it kills.

It is killing me. But I'm not gonna let them. There's one compelling way to stay sane and alive (at least in the real world and in my dreams): close that damn FB! Hahaha. The better to not mind some people's shameless acts of self-promotion - as opposed to rational selfishness or self-promotion propelled by moral values and the need to survive (please read Ayn Rand's The Virtue of Selfishness for elucidation). Shallow conceit is the only end product of FB I like least, in addition to the bashing, backbiting, and attention-getting. However much you'd like to help them develop “self-esteem,” I know of other ways to increase vanity... for the better. 

Anyhow, this entry is far from the short story I bragged I was going to publish several entries ago. All stories are actually trapped here inside my head and I have no way of knowing when I might let them out. Though nowadays time, I've sensed, is a little more lenient with me, it's still too early to waste it. Had procrastination been less of a good friend, I'd have written my life away already. He takes really good care of me, so as of the moment, I cannot look elsewhere.
