Posted by Anonymous on 2010/12/16 under Uncategorized Can you feel it? I know I can. The sense of ultimate exhaustion. Generally being tired and depraved of energy? A great example is being bored during summer vacation or something of that nature but simply being too tired to do something. You know you can’t just lay in bed, but your mind implores you to do so. Why is it that kids of 50 years ago were unstoppable while today’s youth is almost immovable? I know technology does not help but is there something deeper? Perhaps it’s the restless, repetitious schedule we live and breathe in. I’ve spoken of this before. Doing the same routine daily, 8 periods of school then coming home to homework. Doing that until the weekend comes, repeating that until the summer, and repeating all of that until you are out school. Can you imagine a free spirit? What do you think of? Probably someone running free, doing whatever he/she chooses with smiles and laughter. Compare this to reality. In my scenario, I always feel too tired to run, too trapped and constrained to school to do what my mind loves (which is mathematics not being an idiot), too busy to fit in my schedule anything of true enjoyment, too worried about obligations such as school to smile. What people don’t see is why they are still so tired even after 8..9..10+ hours of sleep. It’s because inside us, our minds are tired. Our bodies are replenished every night with sleep but our minds never get a break. They do, you say? I disagree, even at night we have dreams our minds create to keep itself busy. Why? I believe our minds know that if it stops.. it will no longer have the ability to start up again. How does it keep going in the first place? Objects in motion stay in motion. Starting up is the hardest part, but once in motion, once active, our minds require less and less energy to keep up the pace. It seems my mind is running on empty. Is has almost no energy of it’s own anymore. Energy is now almost all provided by previous energy from the law of motion, the law of Inertia. However even after giving literally everything it has to offer, the mind still seems unsatisfied with what is has done. There always seems to be something missing. The object, concept, feeling or whatever it is, is different for everyone but how can a mind be so broken and still be unfulfilled? I know it to be true, we don’t have everything we want. However make no mistake, I do believe this is best. We should NOT have everything, because if such a state were to be achieved all objects and the like would be deprived of value. So yes we shouldn’t have everything but our minds need to slow down a bit. If we aren’t going to have everything, our minds shouldn’t act as if we are by always working so vigorously. Don’t you wish you can pause life and allow your mind to catch it’s breathe? http://frostyrocks.tumblr.com/
