Food for Thought

So I sit here in front of a blank screen wondering. What's to be? what's next? what am I doing here? Is this a quarter life crisis im going through or am i just being childish and immature, questioning everything I do, everything I see? Perhaps I have too much time on my hands, but my thoughts drift away like a lonely boat at sea. From afar I hear the roaring chant of a graduating class, the melodrama fills the air with tension, the room is filled with smiles but I sit there motion-less, cloyed and disenchanted. The noise of joy drifts further and further away from the boisterous waves of my imagination, ceaseless, the sailor meditates the predicted course...

A prose stylist, like Joseph Conrad.

So is this just a piece of the new book?

Just something I had to spit out in a way that was academically accepted and still stood as a good example of "stream of consciousness" in writing.

can anyone relate?

"Astute I felt when I opened the door, perception refitted.
A new light scintillates the causal nexus of my everyday,
hope springs eternal".

"Fear is only for the weak, gallantry and courage for the mongrel.
I yearn to walk these streets anew, but in deep sleep I lay.
Don't wake me!"

i totally understand. i'm 25 and i've been so focused on things for up to this point and now i'm like, wtf am i going to do next? where am i going to go in the next few years? what will i do? who will i be with? what about kids/family?

being out of college, and only a few years into the "real world" is kind of a strange time of life, imo
