WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE...

...And not a drop to drink.

We all know the saying and its ability to be connected to an endless number of circumstances, but I cannot think of the last time I was truly in a situation fitting of this phrase. So often it is associated with a want of our own, something superficial and materialistic due largely in part to our modern capitalist society. The recent struggles of several friends has inspired the boredom ponderance I know delve somewhat deeply and quite aimlessly. Don't get me wrong, there is direction to thoughts, the direction as you will come to find is much like that of a blind beast, sometimes very straight forward flowing and graceful but often spazstic and incongruent. What is it likely to truly be surrounded by "water" and not be able to sip of its cool quenching body. It is enough to drive a person mad. This is further exacerbated when others within the pool drink so freely, not even noticing the struggles of those around them. Surely now some of you see the correlation of this in your own life. Basic needs such as security, food, and social acceptance are so ravenously sought after by the "have-nots", while the "haves" wouldn't know it even if they were. I am no better than any "have" in society; I drink freely while so many around me cannot sip. I told you this would be spazstic, for I no longer what deep meaning I was striving for. I now feel the inspiration for another topic (ADD kicked in) so peace for the next three minutes.
