selection of realities...

sometimes... it seems we lead such jaded lives.. so shielded from a whole different section and selection of realities.. i was watchin some movies today... d... presumably about the rise of dawood... and d company... tombstone.. the story of wyatt earp and doc holiday... and in the middle, line of duty... what im tryin to say i guess is that if you think about it... we all live such separate lives.. alone.. moviestars and corporates... soldiers and gangstaers.. cowboys and students... entwined in ways beoynd our comprehension and butterfly effecting each other and yet isolated from each other.. you can go through your entire life and never see a shootout or a bullet or a dead body.. or you can go you entire life and never have a week without one.. glitz and glamour... money and passion... honour and the call of duty.. right and wrong.. morals and lucidity.. gmats and suparis...

its a maze.. and at the end of it all.. the only reality is what you make of it.. that and death...

and he rode a pale horse... and his name was death... and hell came with him...*

Good to see you're posting again.

In a sense, we all do live seperate lives, doomed to everlasting isolation. While that may be the case, it is quite easy to revel in it and lose sight of our basic interconnectedness.

Gosh, is that even a word?! I need some more shuteye.

So true..... What is real though? If you live it, its real to you.. if you don't live it.. its unreal... So naturally, what seems 'real' to me, is only my perception of the world, from my limited vision of life... Its still as real as real will ever be for me.
