So my head was filled with thoughts tonight, so I had to get it out. So, I used my blog ( unacceptable )
Here's what I sketched down:
What would a life without people be, to loners? Media, books, pop culture… It’s the closest thing we have to a social life. And how do we have that? People. Loners feed off of that. And what if that was all gone? What if the only people who walked the world, were us, the lonesome? I honestly can’t find an answer…
Would we, the loners, be the new creators? I mean we’re already all around. We’re the best athletes, your favorite musician (Elvis, Michael J., etc). We’re the best artists (Do I even need to list examples?). We’re your favorite superhero (Superman, Spider man, Batman…)
Or would we be, for a lack of better term, too “stuck in our shell” to do anything? Would there be an uprising of suicides, due to boredom, emptiness, and loneliness?
And, I know, if you’re a friend and reading this you’ll probably be thinking: “Hey.. What about me? Aren’t I your friend?”
And the answer is probably yes. Loner’s can have friends too. It’s just common that we dont have many. Infact, I can list all of mine right now
* Sara (<3)
* Spencer
* Chelsea
* Anna
Just because I have friends, doesn’t mean I’m not lonely. Most (probably about 95%) of the activities I’m involved in, well, are just by myself. Sometimes I get so lonely it’s painful. But it’s given me a better grasp of reality, I guess. It’s given me more time to think, develop values, stuff like that.
And yah know what I noticed? Whenever I’m walking around in a (very) public place, like a mall or whatever. There’s always those ****ing groups of *******s who mock me..
“Hey, can I be your friend?!”
“HI”
Then they laugh and run off to wherever. I know it sounds like I’m the *******, but really. They do it to mock me… It’s just that giggle and sarcastic tone that gives it away. And the fact that they’re walking away and laughing in their lil’ group doesn’t help much..
It’s funny, too. My parents always wanted to be like all the other kids, and be at some park or mall with a group every weekend. Yet my dad can’t even open a can of axe correctly. Neither can my mom figure out that the laptop is silent because headphones are plugged in…
Huh…
I wanna be an author some day. Its just like, I wanna help the self mutilator. Especially if the cause of that is by loneliness, or some sorta phobia/anxiety disorder.
On top of that, I wanna be a profiler… You know, the ones who take a look at someone and know what they’re thinking.
Some sort of sociologist, too. I want to study the mass. You know, society.
and a psychiatrist/psychologist. Some sort of counselour, I suppose. For teenagers. Middle school through high school. Mayhaps even college. Just as I said about being an author, I wanna help the mentally unstable. I wanna support the people who harm themself. The young, stressed out smoker. But I have no idea how to get people to spill the beans so quickly. I mean, that’s one of the main components of being a counselour/psychiatrist, no? You gotta get them to feel comfortable with you, and get them to open up to you.
And to end this little rant, or mayhaps even an ‘informative’ paragraph, I kinda wanna recommend a couple books:
* Party of One: Loner’s Manifesto by Anneli Rufus
Kind of speaks to me, and puts my thoughts into words. Also gives me a more universal and open view of the other loners out there. Really, even if the life of a loner sounds pathetic and boring, you should check this out.
* Cutting by Steven Levenkron
Self harm is always on my mind. It’s kind of pathetic too, I try to stop others from doing it, but I do it occasionally as well. Really great read, and great reference. Check it out sometime.
Reblog with thoughts (or if you can, use the reply/comment function. Tumblr is ****ing complicated, so it’d be easier to reblog with yer thoughts.) *
Hope I entertained you for a few minutes
*Well obviously this isn't Tumblr. But I'd still love to know what you all think.
