    So like I have been in this kind of void in my life. It has been going on for about 5 years or so.

    I call it a void because it is an emptiness inside. There is no feelings, just emptiness inside. When you are in a void of life nothing means anything. It is like an inner desolation that goes on and on with no end in sight.

    I am trying to pin point when my life stopped having meaning. I think that is what this void is.

    But anyway as of now I do not know when I lost my passion for life. But it really doesnt matter anymore.

    Anyway in these last few weeks a new part of myself is coming out. It is kind of interesting for me to watch.

    Something within me is awakening and although it is exciting to watch it is a little freaky for me because I do not know where it is going to take me. The funny thing is that I really do not care where it leads me to go.

    But all this nonsense is just a way of saying to the people who are in the void ...You can escape the void.

    Spiritual and emotional detachment are the key.

    It does not have to take 5 years to get out of the void.

    Keep on keeping on. The void is not forever. (It just seems like it)


    This is my random thought.

    I like this random thought.

    We can definitely all escape the void and go into the light *

    I was not sure if this post made any sense but I felt compelled to post it.

    Dude, that must have sucked.

    I've had that void feeling before, but it has always been fleeting for at most a few days.
    to have it for years must have tested your sanity, willpower, and endurance. I can't imagine what it must be like to finally be escaping it. Best of luck. :) -conner

    It makes perfect sense.

    I felt like that a couple of months back, but the things in my life started to sort themselves out. Today I've been feeling more alive, just playing my role in this universal play :)

    Thanks I will do fine. :)

    Everything I have gone through in the past has brought me to where I am now. That is all that matters.

    You got it!:) :)

    But when you are in the void you forget there is a way out.

    Thus this post.

    The quote is from a Genesis song. My boyfriend always quotes it, but it's so true and in this case so appropiate.

    I think it's actually good to forget there is a way out, because that allow us to go in, deeper and only THEN we can find the light. More than fight the light, be the light :)

    I think this is what most people live in, or at least a great majority...a void.
    True passions for life is what makes this world a better place.

    What is your dream? And how much are you willing to sacrifice?

    Sounds like something out of SAW.
    My dream is to move out of here, travel the world and have a good career. Nothing special, but its not easy.

    Thats true, it won't be a dream anymore then if it was not a challenge.
    One man's dream is another's everyday routine.
    And it rhymes. :D

    The void and the light are in fact two sides of the Same Thing, or more accuratley, night and day of the mobius strip known as life. Transcending the circles allows you to find God's playground.
