been thinking a lot about death lately.. not in a harmful way but just looking at the state of the world and wanting to appreciate life for all it is. It’s hard though when we live in hyper-accelerated times where we’re constantly put in a rat race against ourselves and our wants and needs. More than ever I feel like everyone around me is able to see their worth and see what they desire in a faint distance but unable to bridge that gap..Or is it just me? I look at certain achievements, awards and mentions and notice that financial struggle is still so ever haunting and I feel like it’s further encrypting us into a system of separation. Have things always been like this? Have we just lost our naïveté? There’s people that ‘have it all’ and still aren’t satisfied- I don’t blame them, we are living in a society that tells us that all we have isn’t enough. I think the whole resurgence of sub-genres in fashion is a good example of seeing people want to lean against revolt; it’s just ironic that this is also happening within the chains of capitalism. Even when I listen to radio and hear songs so obviously copying sounds from the 90’s and 00’s i think a lot of this is fueled by a feeling of longing or ‘saudade’ of what we used to be as a society- I wonder what we can do to exit the last stages of capitalism and let it collapse. What’s the last time you’ve felt satisfied?
