We live in the realm of the notification from an object. We have fallen in love with a screen. We are prisoners to a device 1% of our size and immeasurable amounts less than our personal worth. Striving for the acceptance and approval of a fellow device rather than a being.
We converse with mere ghosts of people. Seeking acceptance from strangers we'll never meet and exchanging words that we'd embarrassed to display face to face. Words written that your grandmother would be ashamed of.
Seeking gratification from a buzz.
The light that illuminates our rooms late at night is that of a touch, swiped left or right, not from the eyes of another. Their words lacking luster as they are displayed rather than spoken and take a stab at who we are and lack any form of respect.
The essence of the presence of a soul is lost in the lack of our ability to see the necessity. We are soul searching in a soulless place.
We have shifted our source of appreciation and acceptance. We are no longer looking to fellow beings, but to electricity.
We are feeding ourselves with a source of no nourishment. All of it will never be enough.
We seek so much recognition from data uploaded to an unreachable place that we forget the beauty around us.
As you submit what you consider beauty to an uninhabited audience, you are putting yourself into a box. Defining yourself by a 2*2 inch square and 114 characters.
I will not let myself be defined by those minuscule dimensions. I believe my beauty is far more grand than a square of that size. I have far more important thoughts than to be limited by characters.
Last time I checked, the world was larger.
Why not live there. Experience there.
Live in the totality of your being, not a snip-it of it.
Do not be scared to experience something bigger than a 4 inch squared footage.
