twilight

The car in front of us hit a deer tonight. It fell to the side of the road, convulsed, and died. After witnessing this event, I spiraled into a mini anxiety attack. It was the first time the world broke through my reclusive bubble. This got me thinking about how everything in this universe is or isn't connected. I'm still unsure about my personal stance. It changes as often as the wind blows. I'd like to think that everything and everyone is connected through energy. But on the other hand, maybe our energy rests only in our own body and that we are unable to fully connect with another being. What matters? What should matter?

Poor deer. I ended up getting home and cooking a big juicy burger. My empathy obviously lasts a good 10 minutes.
