When I look back on my past, I feel like I have not achieved anything. Not one single thing that I set up for myself when I was leaving High School. I was so focused on to achieve my goals and reach my desires, I wanted to so much, that at the end I'm still where I was 6 years ago. Looking and waiting for that something, that great perhaps.
We all want it. We all crave for it. We would die for it.
Love. The one thing that has the power to heal and hurt at the same time. Love is the mutual feelings shared between two people. The uniting of two souls. When one side "loves" and the other does not that is called unconditional love. It is not the unity of souls rather the disengagement of your own soul from yourself. And that is what hurts a person most, because you lose your soul in the process.
All of the above were my own thoughts and feelings after reading "Looking for Alaska". I understood Miles (or Pudge). I knew how he felt. I could relate to feeling worthless, then worthwhile and then losing that feeling altogether, that at the end you feel nothing at all. I understood his regrets and him praying for forgiveness. When reading, I was Miles.
Hopefully one day someone look for me. Heal me. Make the future brighter then it is now. And that is what keeps me going, that little bit of hope inside....that little hope that Miles has throughout the book.
Favourite Quote: "Thomas Edison's last words were: "It's very beautiful over there." I don't know where there is, but I believe it's somewhere, and I hope it;s beautiful."
