Description Still trying to find myself and the more I go forward, the more I wonder what is gonna be there next. One thing for sure though, is that travelling alone not only allows to learn more about the world we live in and the complex variety of people and places, but it also allows to learn a lot about oneself.

I almost feel like I have no home and I have basically no idea about what tomorrow will be made of. I could just let the wind decide of my next destination. I have no chains nor I have the intention to follow the main flow, that one that looks like the path my parents or my grandparents took. Times have changed. I won't have any regrets while looking back in some decades.

I've been meeting a lot of people during my life so far and those meetings you have during travels are the most ephemerous of them all; you talk with people 10 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day, then routes take a different path and you'll likely never meet again.

You have other people that you meet and become acquaintances and even maybe close ones to you; this occurs with people you have to share a bit of life with, classmates, work, roommates and so on. Then routes happen to split again, and I personaly think it's awful to see the different paths people choose to take and what they become, especially those that I know since childhood.

Nonetheless, I often happen to feel solitude inside of me. Whether I am with people around or not, quite paradoxically; it is said that the worst solitude is that one that you feel when you're actually surrounded by people. Can you hear me?

Most of that solitude is chosen. I need it. I don't treat solitude as a bad thing, on the contrary I'd say that it's necessary for thinking, and for preventing people to exhaust and stupefy themselves. I understand me.

But in the back of my mind, I can't help but feel alone as well. I'm torn. As previously said humans are complex and I'm no exception. I don't know, I still need to learn about myself. And to figure out what I am and what I want. But the whole life is still ahead of me... right?

Still happen to be confused though. About many things. But I deal with it!



Sorry for the rant! That cloak is a gift that gave to Neige a long time ago.

I want to be able to write a mouthful of smarts to say to this... I want to add a nice comment instead of 'wow' or 'awesome!' or 'nice'... But i can think of anything other than 'thats deep.." My words are taken out of me ;;
I've never been one to travel, simply because i don't like big changes, but you...
you're like a leaf blown in the wind, low to the ground but agile, never stopping, never slowing down. I find that so... inspiring about you

Just before I went to eat my bowl of pasta, I decided to read this. 
It's funny how when we met, it felt like seeing an old time friend from many years back. Funny how things work like that. 

If there is one thing I've learned over the years is that life is indeed all about struggling. Certain you already know that, but hey.. What's life without the challenges before us? We learn from them and grow, sometimes I even regret the silly things I've done when I was younger, however, I do believe a human can become a better person if they learn from it.

For feeling alone and living in solitude, remember you're actually never alone. You have yourself who will always be with you no matter what happens in life! 

Life is confusing, but I really am impressed that you've decided to travel. I should find one time to do this myself in the future. 

Head up, stay strong! Cuddle and hug all the cats (if you can) as life will always be a bumpy road. No matter what, you'll always have a place to be, and that is inside of you. Go forth, the little witch cat lady is rooting for you.

;w; that description just left me speechless , crying myself cause I know this feeling to well myself.
Its hurting alot but people expect you to go on with life and being sad for to long only breaks you more inside... 

Even if you have a certain people you love more than anyone else they mostly live so far away that you arent able to stay with them , cause the whole place there is different than your own place and the language is the biggest obstacle as always

People somehow change after a while, thats how the paths are made. I have one person on da who always got mad at me when we used to be the closest buddies ever , but she choose the famous path and I just tried to support , but then she found other people who she loved more and got mad at me for not being there for me , while i tried all to be there for her.
But it's life , its normal in it and we all need to deal with it unfortunatly.
True friends stay in your heart , not always nearby , but they shall try to be there..

I ever read this quote: 
The loneliest people are the most wonderfull people ever.
And I can surely say that this quote is for 99 percent truth..

you just have to follow your heart on a way and find the place you feel good at. this might be very hard to find but it is surely there even for you.
Home is where the heart leads to and home can be even just with a friend , when the country doesnt matter .


I hope you feel better soon Just take care alot.
you are a strong person nono.
and the drawing is epic and emotionally now i have read the meaning of it , you made it amazing really.

Réfléchir à propos de sois même est important, après tout Socrate ne disait pas t'il "Connais toi toi même".

Moi même j'ai déjà travailler sur moi même si il me reste des choses encore à faire. Cela dit comme toi Nono, j'aime la solitude même si par moment être ensemble avec des amis ou de la famille. Disons qu'il s'agit plutôt d'une forme d'indépendance qu'il faut je pense garder.
 
Mais je suis sur que à un moment ou un autre ta solitude finira et tu trouvera avec qui tu pourra rester longtemps. La vie est ainsi faite, de rencontre et de séparation c'est ce qui fait aussi sont charme d'un coté. On apprend à apprécier chaque rencontre faite et à ne pas les oublier.

Sinon a propos de ton dessin, comme d'habitude j'aime ton style, on sens dans les yeux de Neige qu'elle vise un but lointain mais qu'elle compte y parvenir (tu est dans le même cas non )

Today's just not everybody's day...I was feeling ranty as well a little earlier~
Solitude doesn't have to be physical to be noticed so I can understand the feel you have, but honestly the traveling you're doing sounds really really REALLY cool :') you've been to so many places I've wanted to be...Hell your hometown is my dream trip
I always get real sad when I have to leave great people I've just met because I know as well that I may never see them some other recent time either
That pain slowly goes away even if you've just physically met someone for just a day, because then you get to go meet more
..er that's what my dad thinks, I could care less about that statement a little
Home will always be where your heart is, but the hard part I can understand from you is you're deciding(?) where your heart is at the moment
I get all those feelings but they'll always be overridden with good and happy memories you always have
And don't worry, you never are alone if you think ya are c;

I often find myself feeling the same feelings you described in my day-to-day life, as well. Even though I do have family to look after and to take care of and vice versa, there are times when I want to or have to be alone. On one hand, I can branch away from the normality of the reality for a while, just be with myself and contemplate where my life will take me. It's scary to think about it and I often frighten myself thinking about my future and where it's all going, but at the same time, on the other hand, I have that time alone to just be myself, to really get to know who I really am on the inside and not fear anyone else's judgements.

I don't often do art that reflects the feelings I have in real life because I often think that keeping my digital life and real life separate is a good thing, but after reading your description, looking at how amazingly you portray your feelings into your artwork such as this piece, and really becoming devoured by the words you wrote in the description and easily being able to compare it to my own plight, I may actually give it a try.

Currently, I'm a sophomore in college and a volunteer in the Korean community. So not only do I have a ton of homework to do all the time, but I'm also learning a new language and I'm helping to get literature to Korean people who can't read in English. My family and I also plan to move to South Korea in 2016-2017 after I get my bachelor's degree so I can teach English over there, then move on to animation. So I have my plan set in motion, I just have a lot of work to do before then. It's scary to think about my future and the work I'm going to have to fulfill to make that dream a reality, but it's also very exciting~

Sorry that I rambled there. I just felt like sharing a little something with you about myself. Even though you and I have never met, just remember that when you are in a state of not wanting to be alone, you're not.
