The journey back to Life
God damn it, there are moments when you distinctly feel that
THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN GET FROM THE OUTSIDE.
Everything around feels dead and inarticulate. A desolate world of unhappy shadows.
No matter how strenuously you search outwardly, there is nothing there.
Or there is… – only emptiness, despondency and endlessly mute sorrow.
In spite of this boastful story as to the many choices and richness of this age,
you are constantly referenced to Nothing.
Nothing and nothing…or variations of nothing everywhere.
In one word, wherever you turn, that´s what you get:
DEATH!
Different plausible and implausible ways to remain dead.
Different thinkable or unthinkable means to end up Nowhere.
“Nowhere” is the single destination…If before all roads used to lead to Rome, today all roads leed to Death.
When we realize and face this factual morbid predicament of these days,
there is only one way:
Namely,
TO STOP LOOKING OUTSIDE, DELIBERATELY LOOKING AND SEARCHING INSIDE.
Our purpose and real destination is to be found inwardly above all. If you look outside for happiness and sense, you will look in vain – like most people do.
So if you want to feel real, dignified and alive, there is no other way but plunging
into “the inner seas.”
Unless the process of your inner journey is purposely recognized and initiated,
you will senselessly drift around in utter desolation, constantly falling the victim
of the nothingness of the present Zeitgeist.

About julienmatei
I feel an inner urge to express what I see, to communicate and share with others all these impressions. Often the things I see are there, not yet manifest, but waiting... to be observed, talked about, and embraced.
These new insights need another approach, a more vivid curiosity...
Due to fear and prejudice we prefer to see only "the official" truth - but THE OFFICIAL TRUTH IS DEAD - being dead, it has nothing to give...
We can continue pretending Death is fascinating or... we can take the trouble to LIVE...
THE NEW has no definition yet...
Again, IT requires another "perception", the courage to apprehend everything differently, from a totally new angle, with new confidence and inquisitive touch. This blog is not about interesting concepts, it is about participation... finding new solutions, inspiration, togetherness.
