Strings Attached
Have you ever wanted to throw away the things for which you are the most grateful? Have you wanted to be unloved, unpopular, and anonymously, utterly free?
Transcriptorial: She tied her cell phone to the string / around her roses and threw them in the water.
yes.
I thought I was the only one. And I thought I was crazy for wanting that more than anything else in the world.
Actually, no.
The System is an integral part of my life. I use it to define who I am and what I am worth.
Perhaps it is an artificial way to do that. It is the best I found so far.
i sometimes get the incredible urge to throw away everything good in my life.
I’ve done it once, but sadly I’m human and crave some sort of attachment. I wish I could be truly free.. but I think it would be incredibly lonely. I don’t think anyone can be completely free though, as we all have memories of one thing or another, that’s another sense of attachment.. maybe. I’m thinking about freeing myself soon, but love, sadly, is the hardest string to cut :(. SAD FACE!! .. It’s weird to know that I think love does not free you. It’s all about choice. Everyone has the freedom to do anything, we just choose not to for one reason or another. Does dependency mean you’re not free? Dependency on an everyday thing such as money?? As a young girl I used to fantasize about running away to the wilderness, living off the land, never using money, never being “in the system”..
I will ramble forever hahaha… I guess all I can say is I believe freedom is relative.
Also, this is the first time I’ve been to your page (thank you stumbleupon) and I really like it, gets my mind running (which.. I usually could go without, but I do enjoy it quite a bit).
