The Art of Talking 1

Another night during the weekend where I should be mustering every bit of sleep I can get to compensate for the years I lack. However procrastination takes hold of me for some reason that I just want to avoid being in a helpless unconscious state for as long as possible.

Understanding the Source.

Ever had people try to one up you in things you say? It seems like it is their purpose to tell you that they have experienced more than you had. If it's something good, they'll try to imply it is nothing compared to what they had. If it's something bad, they'll make it a mission to convince you that they had worst.

I was having a conversation with Rayn few hours ago about coveting other people. Through my explanation of why people need to be trendy; who need to own things that others do; I just came to a new level of realization that the reasons why they do so, are because of their insecurities. They feel lack of self worth then they lack what others have. They feel that by following what others do, trying their best to look great with fashion and possessions just like the everybody else, would give themselves more value.

However they do not know the substance of this value. They don't even know if this "value" that they have chosen to fill themselves with are worth much or at all. It is human nature to continue searching for purpose in life; having the sense of fulfillment in their lives. They fear of ending up living a meaningless life, an empty shell that lives day by day awaiting their inevitable end of existences.
