Show me how to live in your world.

How do people do that? They live in their own little 'bubbles' without regard to anyone else--and on occassion, without regard to what the consequences might be to themselves directly. But these people are 'happy', or at least content.

Oblivion.

They touch nothing and nothing touches them ... or so it seems. If this is the case, then one problem stands, as i see it: bubbles are not selectively permeable. It's all or nothing. So when 'nothing' touches them, that's it ... nothing negative, nothing positive. Maybe that's what they want ... the ability to stop caring. If you don't care, you have no immediate responsibility to anything--or anyone.

Show me your world--if only for a moment, i want to be granted this oblivion. i want to see what you see, feel what you feel. i want to understand--because i'm at a loss.

Show me how to live in your world.
