Vasta valgust varju sisse vajub,
peituma pimedusse peab.
Karjub, kajab kaugele
teisele tema tervitus.


Ah, the plain, old, comfortable inactivity. That warm numbness we get once we've turned away from our responsibility to function fully. Some, then, turn to TV. Others surf the web. Reading is too much a burden, radio is not enough. But noise is everpresent, with melodies and sounds. Don't we love it so? Don't we hate it all - in ourselves, in our friends, in our lovers, in our minds?
It's what I am ashamed of - to enjoy such a state where no real change occurs. It offers us a peaceful way to rest from life and gain nothing. When we are awakened, the world seems colder. all of a sudden, you need to do something, you need to contribute. It's just as bad as heroin, yet we linger on again and again.
