> I sometimes feel like Im going through life without seeing anything that is around me. Ive separated myself from life, so I have to ask the question, am I living? Is it living to go through each day hating life, hating my situation and the way that I feel all the time? Is it living to go through life with your eyes closed, your heart numb, and your mind your worst enemy? Is it??????????/
When did this all start, my dear?
Are there particular events which trigger these thoughts?
The eyes are the windows to the soul, and even with the extended metaphor ("...with my eyes closed."), you are denying the world from "seeing" the person you are. Don't do this. We all have a purpose on this planet and in this life, and though it might be difficult discovering what that purpose is, self-torture is not the way to do it. Self realization is.
Behold! Behold! And SEE!
