apathy - this is what I feel now
apathy - this is what I feel now
Be great in act, as you have been in thought.
William Shakespeare
I feel like all sorts of the world's emotional rubbish and extreme bad luck thrown at me.
Dreams! adorations! illuminations! religions!
the whole boatload of sensitive!
— Allen Ginsberg, Howl II.
Today I am feeling energetic and robust. Feel like working more. Of course there are cyclical phases. All day I was feeling bored and apathetic and this sudden change in me is amazing and I really feel emotionally swayed and this emotional outpouring must be channeled or it becomes dreadful. That is why I am here in the forum and writing and sharing the ideas that pop up within me.
Of course feelings wane and wax from time to time. We cannot do anything but stream with them, but now I feel buoyed up and I do not know in truth how long this will continue.
Of course when I get overpowered by waves of emotions and start penning something and at times I happen to write inspirational poems and a times I write creative essays. Today I wrote a couple of essays for publications in local newspapers about the economy of the country. Of course the essays were grand and I could do better than I have expected.
We humans are really pathetic that we cannot sustain the feeling arising in me. I know mostly bad feelings occupy me.

I'm feeling really bored. Just like every other day. I really need to find something interesting to do for a change.
I am feeling jubilant, cheerful, vibrant today. I am in a very happy mood now and I do not know how long it will last. In point of fact all I feel is nothing is certain and permanent in this world and the feelings I have I know will not last for long and yet I take the opportunity very much.
The philosophy behind this is when we have bad moods we can think about good moods and every good mood is followed by bad moods.
I capitalize on what I have and do not cry over what I have not

Oh, it's been a great day. I've been diminished to the lowest degree a man can be downed to. I was compared with the others and I was told I am like them. How could I feel any happier? I'm jubilant and in ecstasy. I'm in the very limbo. Couldn't get any better. Life is so full of unrequested sweetness. People are so cool when they haven't even met you in person, and I'd better stop here before I can't contain my fingers any more.
Today I am feeling wonderful after the picnic I enjoyed all day. We were picnicking in a very mountainous range. It was a family picnic with so many relatives, elders, kids, youths all combined and we enjoyed home made dishes and frolicked here and there on the mountain tops. We sang, danced, drank and had a great fun. The moment was unforgettable and I could not erase the feeling from my memory chamber and I really enjoyed.

"But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
"In flames and torment?""Oh, yes, I do."
"That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said."Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
"Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.
Frustrated! The Irish Rugby team should be playing better against France and reclaiming the honour lost during the World Cup qualifying football match against France Back in November!
"Come away O human child!To the waters of the wild, With a faery hand in hand, For the worlds more full of weeping than you can understand."
