I have everything a person could want.
I’m no billionaire I’ll admit, but I have friends and people are generally nice to me. Nothing bad ever happens to me and I’m secure with myself and confident. Although I feel completly empty all the time, its easy to forget I’m alive… Its such a bland life even if I’m in the thick of it, away on some adventure or in a fight it doesn’t matter because it just passes me by and with no significant care or thought. I only feel some life when I’m living in extremes, like breaking into buildings ( abandoned ones ) just for the hell of it. I can’t say I’m struggling with it. It’s just a crushing thought to know you’ll never really live, just felt like saying this really…

First!
Find a passion…
something as simple as painting, but preferably something more challenging (for adrinelan junkies try indoor wall climbing, a bit safer example) and then try excelling at it and competing with others…
If youve tried this…
hmm sounds good on the face of it. sounds like you have loads of surplus energy- you got any major hobbies? sports maybe, or music?
Oh!
You know one thing that helps when your feeling empty is helping others..
Have you ever tried working at your local charity or foodshelf?
Well thanks for the suggestions, to be honest I wasn’t expecting any replies to this… I just wrote it because.
I do quite a bit of climbing acctually, just to get away from it all.
if you do feel empty, then you surely do not have every thing a person could desire. you are full of your material things. yet you lack the simplest of things.
do you want to know what it is that you are missing?
passion.
you must find a passion for all things before you can truley become one with yourself and the world. no, this is not some spiritual, religious crap. this is a simple truth.
you must find passion.
the rock climbing, does it make you feel full?
you should know that this is a place were people try their best to answer everything XD
yours, no offense, was easier to answer than alot of them.
i am inviting some (read: all) of my friends to help and throw out their opinion to you. because i believe strongly that the more points of veiw you can hear or read, the better.

you could read some good books. or watch some good films.
this can be thought provoking.
You need to start feeling things. I don’t know how to do that. I am sorry.
I like material things though, somthing to hold on to…
Yes, passion is somthing I lack, I long to feel somthing that strong grip me and shake the dust from years of reccesive fog, but alas, I’ll keep looking and try out the suggestions you have said. Thank you.

Try art. Any king. The ability to create something worthwhile is the thing I wish I had the most.
Then as I said try helping out…
Thats a funny feeling… Your ginving things away including your time yet it feels good…
DO try it!
I wrote screenplays until they all got wiped then I just left it at that, I could pick it up again.
ikari has a point. you seem to have no emotions about anything.
i am usually alot like that, but today, there was the most wonderfull downpour. needless to say i went for a walk and loved it.
i love rain. i have no real reason why. i just love it.
but now i am just monolougeing XD.
any way, the moral is that i fell happiness over something so small and random. my whole day afterwards i was just too happy to let stuff bring me down.
try finding happiness in small things. or get an artistic hobby like metalcrafting.
i chose metalsmith/crafting as an example because you semem to like haveing something as a product in your hands. i make small rings and such and i then have a finnised product that i can look at and hold

well i just recently lost 30% or more of the book i am writing but i picked that right back up and redid it all.
but that was only cause i still had some of the book left, otherwise i would have made an entirely new book.
you should really pick it back up and start over. maybe do what i do and buy a flash drive and hide it some were, full of back ups. just in case

oh, that blows? What happened, didn’t back it up, then your computer committed suicide?
viruses.
i really dont like them.
lost 55% of my data that was stored in the attempt to reboot and back it all up.
me?
it is on page 80 by now if i remeber correctly
started a long time ago though.
a really lazy writer.
its about a guy who has to do these task like things so he can become king of the underworld. sounds kinda dumb like that but I personally like how it is going so far
What happened to the old king of the underworld, why is the title up for grabs?
oh yea, i also lost a chapter or two during a suicdal trance where i decided to DELETE ******* EVERYTHING.
the old kind has to choose new souls to throw up onto the upper world to do the tasks and then take his place, should the new one finish them.
sorry to pause the conversation, but i would like to know what MR. Anon’s screenplays were about.
suicidal* i know you can figure this typo out, but i feel so weird if i dont correct it myself
Well, basically anything I thought of. Just little scenes here and there that all combine to make one whole entity. Never too much dialouge, just too much imagary.
My main project was about the confusion that follows the end of everything, it was basically a project which the main charecters had been running from what they thought was a virus, but Its not, I never really thought of a way to introduce the fact its somthing different subtly… well they seek sanctuary and basically cling to survival until they stop running, then they basically die when they find what they thought was safty. I’ve started the stage directions for this again, on paper, so its a little more reliable.
Thank you, its a more somthing you have to see, I can’t explain it in words very well. Hows the book coming along?
You’re writing a book Alpha? Sorry, got here a little late, but I do like the sound of that main project. How are the both a ya?
yep. the book is going well. just hit a new writer’s block recently so i have not updated recently.
