GOING DEEP WITH NORA

Every person who is currently alive or has passed away has been given their own mind. Each mind contains opinions, thoughts, and perception that uniquely differ from one another. Today, I want to discuss perception. Isn't simply fascinating how everyone perceives the world?

Some people see the world as this broken, dangerous place full of sadness and anger. Others could see the world as a place of beauty, happiness, and love. I fall in between these two opinions. I believe the world does have beauty such as nature, music, intelligence, and simply people in general. I also believe everyone can be happy. I'm not saying that everyone is happy because that is a lie.

What I am trying to say is that there are multiple ways to feel happiness. Falling in love could be a way to feel happy. I don't advise whoever is reading this to just go fall in love with some boy or girl just to feel happy. I'm simply saying that love is usually connected to happiness. Being in love/ being in a relationship makes you feel happy because you have someone who loves and cares about you. I honestly don't know how being in love feels.

I believe that being in love would feel like you are stuck in a trance or a haze where nothing really matters except for the person you feel deeply affectionate towards. If I were ever to fall in love, I would want to fall in love with someone who is my true best friend. I trust my best friends more than anyone else.

But back on topic, the world has its beauty, but it has imperfections. Nothing is perfect. The main imperfection in the world would be people. Some people are the reason why the world is a mess. Others are the reason why I want to keep living.

Our world is just a messed up, beautiful place like my mind. My mind isn't the most luxurious place to visit especially when I'm feeling blue. I'm currently feeling a bit blue and extremely exhausted. Everyone has worn me out. It would be amazing to sleep for ages and awake refreshed and content.

But anyways, I always stare at people and wonder, "How do they see the world?" and "What are they thinking?" I want to get inside of people's minds and explore them. I actually used to spend time studying people, but not anymore because my selfish mind would rather occupy me with daydreams and fantasies.

I guess you can call me a selfish machine...
