I’ve taken a break from what’s on everyones minds…
I don’t know what to feel anymore
It was empathy
Every post is negative
Every person is emotional
When they’re angry, they’re unforgiving
When they’re hopeful, they’re still depressed
Underneath it all, everyone wants to connect and feel some sense of companionship
But by doing so, they somehow exile the ones they care about
Since when did we all have to agree on the same thing?
My own mother and I don’t see eye to eye on most things, does this mean I abandon my relationship with her?
What happened to civil debate? Agree to disagree?
And why does it matter? Why MUST we be right. Why MUST we prove that we are correct?
Does it come out of a place of love?
I think unfortunately it does.
Unfortunately with the wrong approach
Everyone’s forgotten that we used to disagree all the time
but because its through a screen, its somehow unacceptable
Cancel culture is real.
And I don’t even mean deplatforming a certified profile.
The same people who hate cancel culture, the ones who believe everyone should have the freedom to voice their opinions and not be shamed for whatever the remark, are the same people who are cancelling their own friendships because they won’t agree with what their own friends have to say!
I don’t know how I should think anymore.
I’m abstaining from viewing
How can I sympathise when there is still a whole broken world out there that doesn’t exist in the form of technology. Real war, modern day genocide, a country that has no vocabulary for the word love!
We must be so privileged that we can forget
Life is easy but we make it difficult
I’m officially lost
There’s too much I don’t know
but enough to know this is bigger than anything we can grasp our heads around
So for now
i’m checking out
and will try to raise positive vibrations
Just not in the digital world
In the real world
Its still here
I love it
I miss everyone in it
But for now, I’m kind of liking no mans land
