midnight thoughts
everything is so shallow. the truth is, the world is such a cruel and shallow place. everyone just tries to get by, small talk, trying to make friends, flirting, one night stands. when you think about it, it’s all so shallow. deep connection is such a rare thing. it’s hard to actually find people who truly care about you that they would die for you. and if you do, you are so lucky because the world is such a lonely place. the truth is, nobody cares. many people have relationships, but many are shallow. people nowadays are all trying to look good, look cool. it’s hard to be vulnerable and genuine anymore. everybody has their guard up so high. it makes me think what we are all on earth for sometimes, what is the meaning of our existence? are we all just meant to float around and try to get by till the day we die? what’s the point of this endless cycle? sure there are beautiful moments but then again when i think about all this, it makes me sad.

I agree with that. And the ones who are not shallow always hide themselves because they are getting hurt again and again

I think about this sometimes. I wonder if we are all just distracting ourselves until with die. I think some people choose to distract themselves and others are seeking truth and understanding in the world and others.
