No, I'm not here to give you Leary.
But I've been thinking lately myself as a small stone in the ocean. I stand there, just be. Sometimes the current moves me. The world around me changes. Am I going to change? When the snow is gone, it'll be close to a year of almost complete solitude. When the snow melts, it's a sure sign of progress, nature moving forward. I'm not moving forward. Did I stop my movement, or did the ocean's current stop moving me? I can't go back, but can I catch up?
Sometimes you feel like you aren't part of the society or the human race to begin with. But still, you feel like you're connected to the nature. Even more so then. In fact, I should change my personal time to the for seasons, light and dark. Who cares what time it is, it's irrelevant. Once you begin to wonder the rationale and common sense behind things, you're calling almost everything BS. So are you dropping out or tuning in? Dropping out from the society, or tuning into the world and nature?
I think most men should experience a long period of solitude. Perhaps not as most men these days are doing it, having a crawfish on you. A complete dropout is sometimes the tune in, in which you become more self aware while becomine less self aware, depends on the standards you live by. Yes, I have lost my relationship to all celebrities, all the gossips, most news, all politics, most entertainment and media. But at the same time I can reflect more clearly. I would see a person of celebrity status having front page news because they said something strange or bought a car an insult to myself. Not a personal one, but as a meaningless discourse from the lowest levels of the structure that is commanded by its upper layers of power.
It keeps us occupied and blurred. Once you disregard all that, in solitude, you go through a painful process of self realization. It cannot be called identity crisis, because then we would all have it. It should be called the process of self realization, it should happen in a vacuum of a sort, though that is virtually impossible. You are born from pain of that, you realize you aren't so great, you realize most everything is BS, because it doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter. Ask yourself, does it matter? No. It doesn't. You even realize that you yourself don't matter much. Then you drop out. And only after you drop out, can you start tuning in.
