Analysis of Nothingness



I believe some people are born lonely. For them loneliness is just a warm blanket
that covers them. It's a familiar friend that ebbs away the hours
the way water from a stream ebbs away the stone. Until at the end we are left grasping only the beauty of the nothingness
with which we came to this place.
