Oblivio.

We all find oblivion at some point. At the bottom of a bottle. At the end of a long night out with friends, when the happiness is all gone and everyone has gone home. When we find ourselves alone in our room while summer drags on and on and we find that we have already done everything we’ve wanted to do. Or we’ve lost all we can lose.

This is when we find out who we really are. Find oblivion and you find yourself. We can find a place so deep and hidden away that we cannot help but face it, like a grizzly bear gnawing at our heels as we skip and serpentine through trees and thickets.

Don’t run. Face that grizzly bear because it is in that moment we realize that this is not oblivion. We have meaning. We are not food for the weak. We strive for against actual thought and the need for finding something humanistic and beautiful in everything.

When you have reached oblivion you have found yourself and that could not possibly be oblivion.
