I've never tried one of these online journals before, so I figured I might as well try something different. More than likely it won't differ much from any other journal, in that I will probably be the only one that will actually view the thing. I can't imagine why anyone else would find my inane ramblings interesting anyway. However, in the event that someone should happen to come across this entry, let me begin by saying this.
I am a dead man. I am not suicidal, mind you. An individual who is suicidal is a living person who seeks to end his or her life. I am already dead. I am dead in the way that everyone else around me is dead. They walk by every day, grinning through hollow eyes and sunken cheeks. I doubt that they even know that they are dead. Whether we utter a phrase or speak for hours, we say nothing. Yet the nothing that we say, the absense of substance, reveals to me the absense of life. It's something most people, with much more constructive uses of their time, don't even take the moment to consider; the differences between life and death, in the figurative sense. When viewed in that perspective it is possible to be dead while mortally alive, and even alive when mortally dead. So, on that note...
(he he he. Those smiley's are so cool)
