Today my neighborhood was in flames. People gawked stupidly, preventing the heros from their work.
The terminator preview has the song "The Day the World Went Away". Tthe most intimately intimidating and perfect songs I can imagine for this day.

Lyrics: I'd listen to the words he'd say but in his voice I heard decay the plastic face forced to portray all the insides left cold and gray there is a place that still remains it eats the fear it eats the pain the sweetest price he'll have to pay the day the whole world went away
Star Trek was absolutely fantastic. Wow. I can't talk about it other than the fact that it was PERFECT for today (and all of the time)
My day seems somewhat oriented around destruction. It's left me feeling a strange unnameable emotion. Somewhere bordering malcontent and cold. But not bad exactly. I do cry everytime I listen to said Nine Inch Nails song... which is on repeat. But in a very ...cleansing? way.
I'm terrified. I want to do something better. and more. But there isn't anything.

There's always something you can do. Sometimes it's hard to find that starting point, but I know you can find your contribution to society. If I learned anything this year, it's that even the smallest actions can make a difference.
ReplyDeleteTry to keep your chin up. (Easier said than done, eh?)
I played the live version for you right?
