There were so many things i used to do as a child and early teenager that now i am unable to. I used to be able to draw all sorts of things. I could easily come up with lyrics. See things differently etc. I would look at a flower and see a strange organism with meaning in every petal, but now i only see a plant like any other. It's almost as if i've lost all inspiration, curiosity, motivation, and innocence. Nothing surprises me or amuses me anymore. It's so hard to use my imagination when i have so many worries in my head and everything is so predictable. It's like too much information has stopped a part of my brain from working, an artistic and spiritual part that is very important, and i didn't realize that until now.
I have become more analytical and self-conscious at the cost of not being what people would consider crazy enough.
I've been struggling with this for a while now, and it feels like everyday it gets worse. It's so frustraiting.
But that's not all, i've also noticed this a lot in society nowadays with an increase in atheism and people spending more and more time on their phones and pc (myself included), artists being shunned, superstition being shunned, and we just keep seeing the same shit everyday, movies being recycled, people can barely come up with anything new without copying another so on and so on.
Back when i first saw adult coloring books, i thought... Um.. this is kind of strange. Why would they make "adult" coloring books? Why not just buy a normal coloring book? I understand now. And i see why it is a thing. Because it would be embarrassing for an adult to buy a regular coloring book but even an adult needs that important thing that they have as a child and lose over the years.
I just wish it wasn't so late for me...
