Oceans

I have a feeling that my boat
has struck, down there in the depths,
against a great thing.
                    And nothing
happens! Nothing...Silence...Waves...

     --Nothing happens? Or has everything happened,
and are we standing now, quietly, in the new life?

                                                                                               Juan Ramon Jimenez

 

Could I have said it better? Absolutely no.

So he talked for me. That's what the great poets are for.

The time: late evening.

The setting; my bedroom, where my computer is.

The weather outside: cloudy but surprisingly warm.

The mood: restless, out of focus, tired, demotivated. Lonely. Mostly... lonely.

The solution: pretending you will read and care.

    You don't need to pretend, Ginger.  A lot of souls here will care, me included.  I'm sorry you are feeling lonely.  I hope it passes quickly.  {{{{{{hugs}}}}}}

    Awww, we will read and we do care. I'm sorry you're feeling down, too. Feeling out of focus and unmotivated and empty is just plain crappy. I'm hope you feel better soon, ginger.

    i'm watching over you while you sleep, my dear friend. and sending happy tendrils of thought in your direction, hopefully to figure in your dreams and ease your loneliness if only for a moment or two... :-)

    (((( hugs )))))

    hey, tomorrow's another nice day, hopefully full of sunshine and fluffy clouds, to look forward to... :-)

    Ginger: I'm sorry you are feeling alone. Sometimes there is nothing worse in the world than that feeling.

    One is the loneliest feeling you can ever have. (to borrow just a little from a cold, cold night).

    You silly girl you...

    Wasn't it you that I fell asleep next to at my lunar eclipse party?  Sorry if I snored a little. 

    Morning came, I awoke and you were gone...  and now I find you here feeling lonely... 
    Hope you're feeling better today. 
  • mobil said on Feb 21, 2008....
    Hey Gingerbread, you are still working at that job right? Give things some time, yes more time. You are going to walk, maybe fall right into a big, soft, fluffy, billowing pile of happiness and joy like you haven't seen for sometime now.
     
    How do I know this? Well, I know you and I know about giving things time, that's how I know Gingerbread. Don't prepare for this, it's gonna catch you unaware ok?
  • beyondtheveil said on Feb 21, 2008....
    Extended loneliness teaches that your
    innate search for a true connection
    is still intact.

    This happened to me. It took over six years, but it happened.
    And it will happen to you, in time.
  • Battycat said on Feb 21, 2008....
    Know the feeling sometimes, hope you're feeling better {{{hug}}}
  • secretlife said on Feb 21, 2008....
    it's time for spring.
     
    the grey and early nights and too much inside magnifies our gray moods i think.

    Care to come back to my planet Saturn with me once I've concluded my business with your leader? You will be given fun job there.

    Please direct me to your leader. Thank you.

    You' re lonely? wish i could help but i can't i have been feeling like doing anything or doing nothing are both horrible options and i want to kill the happy clappy crowd who keep telling me tomorrow will be better for what do they know of today? Today its cold and boring and has finished without me knowing it and how dare they lecture me o today when they hide themselves from it? The shadows are but a poor reflection
  • hotaka said on Feb 21, 2008....
    Something keeps trying to hold my boat back and for heaven's sake I am trying to fight back. Sometimes I get caught in an eddy and swirled around a bit, but the moment I break loose I put the oar to the floor - so to speak - and get moving!
  • allswell said on Feb 21, 2008....

    ............................................................................................................................................

    And so i went to bed after writing this post, last night, and i dreamt one of the most amazing and powerful dream ever.

    I think something is indeed moving in those deep waters of my uncosciousness...

    That, or the lunar eclipse....:-).

    Actually, both. I think the moon and her gravitational force made all the fishes in the seas stop and think...and when the fishes think is time of great changes...

    The feeling that inspired this post, the eclipse and the dream.....what a perfect coincidence.

    I will tell you the dream in another occasion.....i wrote it down already for fear of forgetting the details. But the overall meaning has been so clear to make me wonder and cry, like somebody in awe who finally sees the last missing piece in the gigantic messy puzzle of their  life.

    I thought you migth wanted to know how i was feeling...

    I know that you care....you are real and you feel.....i know that at night we all gather around Soulcast in search of a friend, a word of comfort and support, a laugh, a smirk, a flirty look..

    We are all ships in the current.

    Sometimes, one like me feel as she got stuck against the rocks....but like Jimenez said...it might just be the end of something and the beginning of something else better.

    Thanks you for running to my aid.

    I do care for you too.....{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}

  • steppenwolf68 said on Feb 22, 2008....
    Ging, if you never have a down, how can you recognize an "up"? Lonely, yes. But it gives you time to think.
    ... and see, the upside is you got someone a half a world away to read your blog. Now, isn't that at least something?
  • anonymous said on Feb 22, 2008....
    steppenwolf...aka...hottips...no, not if that someone reading is you!  Go away!
