Disconnect to Reconnect

I tried to ‘disconnect’ myself from the world this weekend, only to discover how truly dependent I really am. Still, in this time of attempted solitude, I was able to experience genuine moments of reconnection with self.

A feeling only comparable to a distant memory now relived. A resonance with something both within and without yourself. The lucid emergence of an amazing second half of yourself that goes unnoticed throughout your consistently unconscious days. Days where your thoughts and your actions are not your own, but instead chained by trend and routine to the shackles of everyone else.

Poetically forced through these mundane motions by the definition of ‘free will’, yet no actual existence of it, we have been brainwashed to forget to allot time for these essential, introspective periods. Only in engaging in this separate, fully conscious and original type of thinking–completely of one’s own beautiful design–can one truly remain self aware enough to be of any good to themselves, far less to society.
