silence of the sheltered self

It is radical to walk alone inside, but we all have our ways we can't deny. What we think is often untrue and yet we want it so, even if we don't know why. One could speculate as to the reasons we are the way we are, but the truth of the matter is we are constantly morphing into a completely new people; both on the inside and on the outside. We form new ways of seeing the world; we evaluate our current positions; we acknowledge our position and reason as to why it is good. If that reasoning begins to form even the slightest of cracks in the utopian life, then the utopian life we no longer have. The one inside will always find a way to creep in the cracks and make rooms for the silence of the sheltered self to form new reasonings and claims to that which must be right. This is done knowing the entire thing is nothing more than a mere shadow of the inner you; a replica; a reflection of the one that walks alone inside. 98.2
