You know I really try to avoid serious topics, but due to current events and certain realizations I think I'm becoming depressed again. I'm really not sure if I am or if I'm just overwhelmingly sad at the moment. I have my reasons, that I really do not wish to talk about at this exact moment. No i'm not going to go into a spill about how horrible I do or do not find myself I just would like to let everyone know so if I don't post up a blog any time soon that is why, and if I do I still may be slightly depressed and just hiding it rather well.

This blog will simply be my venting point so I can rant about things and actually voice my thoughts since I can't really talk to people seeing as they "don't listen" when I really want or need them to. An explanation is all I really want to give most of the time, and I admit that some times I tend to just go on about things that I shouldn't, but when I'm honestly trying to say something that is appropriate to the topic and may spare someone pain I would like to be listened to.

It has to be almost every soul's pet peeve to be ignored even if you are not willing to admit it. So why is it so easy for us to ignore others when we hate it just the same? Is that not ridiculous? If you think it isn't then I challenge you to tell me what is.聽 I'm unsure about a lot of things in life and only sure about one, that is my relationship and the love we share in it. Sure you could say that is two things I'm sure of, but it's really not. The two work hand in hand as one. So yes there you have it.

Other than that life is a general mystery. no one knows if they will actually go on to accomplish their goal in life or if they will be in teh slums of it all doing some back water job just to get by. Yet we all spring forward and attempt at our best to achieve what is almost unattainable, or at least it is to a lot of us. However it is hope that drives us, yes people it is hope.

Oddly enough a lot of people believe in fate. Which is saying that you have no presence, or power over what your life will turn out to be. As such if you don't like your fate shouldn't you lose hope? It only makes sense in that form. However there are some that believe in fate only to challenge it. I.E. that is there goal in life to change their fate and be their own person. That is a respectable goal and surely not the easy way out by any means at all.

We have these nifty little MMO's to keep us distracted from the real world and we try so hard to be distracted by them once we engage in a game. The problem with this is that if you have something weighing heavy on your heart or you mind you wont be able to focus on the game, because you'll be stuck thinking about the real world. At least I have never played a game that could completely rip me from the reality of what is going on around me and into the virtual world of what I play. If virtual reality was made maybe that would help, but I'm sure that would also cost an arm and a leg to obtain. As such, that just sucks.

Regardless of all that (V.R would be so awesome) what are we to do with our displaced emotions? Most beings can not figure out how to tame their emotions and for those who say they have tend to go overboard. There has never been a documented happening where a man or a woman can control their emotions.

90% of people say that women are more in tune with their emotions then men are. That simply is not true. Let me explain why. Men are able to hide their emotions a lot easier then most women are, but most women wear their emotions out on their sleeve. As a result it is easily said that those women really feel their emotions.

For example a woman will cry at a good romantic, or sad movie where as a man would try not to or hide it. It's a matter of pride which is another emotion...go figure. In result the playing field as far as that goes is just about level.

Now on the inverse you have the women and men who switch roles on this. Where the man wears his emotions on his sleeve and the woman hides hers from the world. This results in stereotypes of the male being femanine or just out right homosexual. However in a relationship this causes friction because one is so use to the other thing. That also is true of a man that hides his emotions from a woman. To be honest emotions are not meant to be hidden which is why we as humans tend to suffer physical pain when we hide too much. Like stress indused asthma or something along those lines.

 

This blog has no conclusion I was just ranting.

 

The end.

You're fairely right in most of this rant. I would have to say that I disagree with the 'women and men are both in tune with their emotions' bit - only because estrogen elevates emotions (which is the hormone females produce dominantly). So in the chemical nature, they are more in tune with their emotions; but it's true that they wear their emotions on their sleeve.

MMOs are there as a distraction, from the real world. Some just want a half-hour or hour to sit back and escape from the world around them for just that long. Others find it overwhelmingly difficult to 'survive' in the real world so they escape into many means (Internet [Blogs, Forums, IRC, Messengers, E-mail], Games [MMOs, Solo-Games, Puzzle Games], or even things unmentionable here). It's just what we do, even though there's a common trend that people just want a more vivid realm of communication; which is why so many MMOs focus on communities these days (guilds, Guild Versus Guild, Player versus Player, etc) - people like being competitive and able to speak to their friends in-game.

Keep your chin up. As Incubus once said: "We all have something that digs at us, at least we dig each other." No matter how down you get, just remember there's people just like you out there, on here, somewhere... life isn't so bad, it just takes some harsh beatings at times.
