Has been a great day. Has also been one of those days where everything seems slightly surreal. The complete absurdity of my existence astounds me sometimes...it's kind of demeaning in a way. We're like these little troglodytes, ensconsed in patterned behaviour that we somehow consider meaningful and important when in fact nothing about us is important. Is fine for those of us who can create our own purpose and fulfillment in life, but I wonder...what about the rest? How do people maintain a sense happiness in life if they don't know what it's for? I'm sure this must be the reason that so many of us are depressed and unhappy. I read an article today written about the results of a study that proved loneliness is a bigger killer in old age than obesity. I believe it. Without meaningful connections and purposeful living, what would be the point?

I can feel the effects of the longer days beginning to kick in; energy is higher, outlook more positive. Must prepare for Frühjahrsmüdigkeit though...just in case.

Music right now...am finding so much amazing stuff! Grimes, Little Dragon, Kelpe are heavy on my playlist - chill and dancy, all great for running.
