hmmm i could say a lot in responding to that, but i think it would require an actual conversation. i have had a lot of interesting feelings about death lately, feelings that i can't quite articulate, not really afraid, not really anxious or nervous, not really excited, maybe interested... i think that dealing with death, and pondering on it, has actually helped me grow as a person almost more than anything else has...mourning death is bad medicine for life... more on this in an actual conversation sometime...
That really resonates with me because I often feel like I give too much of myself to others and that in moments where that risk pays off, I feel so invincible. When it doesn't pay off, I feel very temporal. Very human. And that's scary.
i'm kind of addicted to media, all of the arts, religion, culture, traveling, politics, communication, music, academia, and breathing. Sometimes i talk about them here. Mostly i just post stuff i think is cool. The title our.eclectic.world is an excuse to leave my blog unfocused and post whatever i want. It kind of makes my blog cool. It kind of makes it suck. Oh, i also am trying to make films and was in a rap group for ten years.

The sorrow we feel from the loss of a loved one, to many, is the only proof that we hold something powerful enough to extend beyond the grave.
