About the void, personal reflections, by Laura Von Randow.

 There is a feeling of emptiness in the air, inside people, I notice that day after day countless people have this feeling of emptiness, this perception that something is missing, as if things no longer make so much sense... I believe that we are living a great existential pandemic, a “silent” pandemic. 

Sometimes I feel this emptiness, and I don't know how to deal with it, the lack of feeling invades my soul and makes me question my existence, the pain in my chest tightens, my head hurts, "my God, should I die?" That's the thought. No no!  There are ways to live with this if we understand that not everything needs to make sense, some things are crazy, some things came out of nowhere and will return to nothing, that's the point.

 

I have such complex thoughts in my mind about this subject that I can't even express it, how am I going to be able to tell my sorrows if they are so tangled up that even I don't know?! What's left of my life? Where are my sorrows? Where am i? Will I have to count the sorrows of others, having so many of my own?…

"I've grown numb, dry as my tear ducts.
I've grown dumb, and empty."
