How far must one travel to know where the world truely is …? To understand it beyond the learning of TV and second-hand views and feel if as you know. You know? Maybe not. ME: I’m not sure if I’m making sense but then sense isn’t necessary in understanding this world and I figure I should be qualified to know this, having wandered the world now most of my adult life as I approach 40 – solo & nomadic, without much possessions, no social circle, no permanent job, etc - and am wondering what next and where and what sense does anything ever make. And I answer: there is no sense except to say: this is how it is. An unpredictable and senseless and strange world and in fact, life itself, is much the same.  Existing because we do and mostly because we don’t. Don’t know what it’s about. But if it’s going okay or it’s alotta fun – let’s have more and if it’s not, get it better or can’t wait to end it, but still, there is no sense as in why we’re here. Some say religion gives answers but I think not. Not if you ask too many questions. But if you believe, well, good, but for me the answers have never been enough … and so I ask where is the world? What is life? I continue on the trail, knowing that I’ll never know …

    I think about this very concept often. I think I have a tendency to take a more spiritual approach to life. Maybe it is because It’s a concept you can always fall back on when you truly dont know the answer but my best guest is that this world and life is all about how many ways you can get out and overcome problems. Being here in Korea, I thought I would find a little bit more about myself and I did. I found out that im more fucked up than I thought I was lol. Religion for me doesnt give answers but I try to find them in myself, which often time leaves me saying “is that what you really think? (believe? etc.) I dont know what life is about I hope that one day someone will just knock me over the head with the answer and I can go on my merry way living life to a fuller extent knowing that it isnt just a mishap.

  1. If you look for it, you’ll find it. Start by reading the Bible, it’s a great read 8)
