Music for the moment and the mood

[unixronin]

I always thought the future held a perfect place for us
That together we would learn to be the best that we could be
In my naiveté I ran, I fell and lost my way
Somehow I always end up falling over me

And one day I woke to find the future had no place for me
I was unwanted in a world that with my hands I helped to build
Where once was honesty and pride I now stand broken and alone
Just a shadow of what I was meant to be

Does anybody feel the way I do?
Is there anybody out there?
Are you hearing me?
I believe in you
Will you believe in me?
Or am I alone in this hall of dreams?
I believe in you
You believe in me
But I have no trust in anything
Somehow I'm always
Always falling over me

They say that time will heal, the truth shall set us free
Well that depends on what it is that you choose to believe
In this prison made of lies we see what it is we want to see
And find comfort in this broken hall of dreams

Does anybody feel the way I do?
Is there anybody out there?
Are you hearing me?
I believe in you
Will you believe in me?
Or am I alone in this hall of dreams?
I believe in you
You believe in me
But I have no trust in anything
Somehow I'm always
Always falling over me

Somehow I'm always
I'm always falling over me

Music for the moment and the mood

[sigh] I hope this moment and mood, were fleeting. If not, I wish I could have done something, to change them.

A mood all too common these days, I'm afraid. I feel a deep lack of meaning in my life.

Obviously your religion/philosophy/mileage may vary; but my first reaction to this is:

This is because there is no meaning. It doesn't mean anything, sorry. The mistake is in believing that meaning adds value, which leads to a belief in the converse -- that lack of meaning indicates a lack of value.

I prefer to spend my time adding value to my life rather than wasting it trying to find meaning. Ride your motorcycle, love your family, enjoy the fact that you can walk, take pleasure in work when you have it and spend your time doing/learning/investigating things which interest you when you don't have work, usw. Naval-pondering is also good, in my book, but rather than looking for meaning I prefer to spend my time evaluating myself. Who am I and how do I measure up to my own standards and what is within my power to change for the better, that kind of thing.

I believe in you.

There's so much I'd like to say but it sounds so trite like a Hallmark greeting card and actions speak louder than words.

See you soon.

I think maybe the problem is I need to believe in me again.
