“Listen everybody, I have seen what’s inside this building. I want you to stop, turn around walk away, there’s nothing inside. For we are dying meat, we’re meat and we’re unspecial and no one remembers us and we’re utterly alone. So do yourself a favor and walk away. There’s no plan, there’s nothing but randomness and chaos and entropy and a slow certain decompostition of everything you are and everyone you’ve ever loved into their tiny, friendless, meaty little components.”

“Let’s face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

And why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn’t the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?

If teachers taught, why didn’t preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?

You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which an alarm goes off by going on. English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race (which, of course, isn’t a race at all). That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.

"to the slight hollows that mark the place"

Why do we all feel such pressure to do this or that? Why now? Why does it seem that if we don’t have some answer, right NOW, something is wrong, we failed, four years wasted. It doesn’t seem to make sense. Why does the pressure seem to be outward? Why does everyone else seem to care so much? Do they even?

I don’t think they do.

I think we get so caught up in what is expected of us that we lose sight on ourselves, our own yearnings.

I’ve become so anxious and stressed about the impending week, when I shouldn’t be at all. I should be excited. I shouldn’t be trying to rush into any career that I am not certain of. I should be meeting myself, getting to know my thoughts, getting comfortable being with myself. Taking the time to think about who I am, rather than rushing around to hopefully let life or others define it for me.

I need to take a moment to breathe, sit down, take a look around and get a good bearing on what life is and what I want to do with this strange opportunity I have been given. Some may think this such a waste of time, yet I think this is the most important time of my life. Whatever first step I decide upon will result in a dozen more potential paths to take.

Who knows where I’ll be in a month, a year, five years…

No one but myself can influence those possibilities, and I am ready, for once in my life, to take on that responsibility wholly myself.

“Shakespeare’s character Hamlet tells us that ‘nothing is good or bad as thinking makes it so’. As a problem solver, or at any point to gain clarity with your own mind and emotional state, try this inquiry from the author Byron Katie: What is the ‘story’ that is going on in my mind at this moment? Is it true? How do I know that it is true? What is the situation like with this story? What would my life be like at this point without this story?”
