Hi Sandra
Since I studied literature in university, the habit of giving my
opinion on texts got the better of me, so the following is
feedback from a snobby critic.
The first thing that feels strange about this chapter is the
amount of times you repeat the phrase: "There is no you" in all
the variations possible. While it is very unclear what your
character has to say about it. And it would be the most
interesting thing for a reader, it always is!
But then, there is no character in this chapter, ergo - nothing
that a mind could understand. Just abstractions. Might as well
be reading a passage from Schopenhauer - there is nothing, you
can't do nothing.
Apart from that, you don't even say how to break free. Yes, the
metaphor of prison is graphic enough, but doesn't contain a
message to reader - should he do anything? Is it possible for
him to escape, still? You keep a 'human perspective' so out of
context, that it just becomes rambling (heh, wouldn't I know
;D) 'Cause you don't even argue in favor of anything, because
"nothing exists". Why write a whole book about it then?
While the most intriguing stuff - how people/animals treat you;
what exactly is the process of finding "it" - all this is left
unsaid. And the phrase: "Understand that nothing exists" is
impossible to comply with. Nobody ever would understand that.
Pretty much, the worst advice to someone who's going through
sh.it
Uh, whatever, all of it is meaningless anyway
Rambler out,
Cheers

@dunkdivee Thanks for your comments. I'm glad you found some
of it entertaining and I think there might be some more of that
coming, so maybe just stay tuned. I understand the "B.S."part
about "nothing is happening" and "no world" and all that. I
can't help how it sounds. Sorry, but I can't make the words
make sense anymore than you can.
@breakup Good to hear from you, and welcome aboard. Yes, the
"haywire" thing is the hurtle of all hurtles, even after you
'see' it. (sometimes song lyrics pop up and this one just came
up, lol "I've been to the edge, and then I stood and looked
down, I lost a lot of friends there baby, I got no time to mess
around, so if you want it got to bleed for me baby") Spot on, it
may be a metaphor but when you get right down to it, you are
tearing your self apart, and all kinds of weird stuff will
"appear" that will make you question your very sanity, but keep
going, and take heart, turn on the news and ask yourself "who's
the crazy one, someone who wants to get to the bottom of things
or someone who's willing to accept "reality" as everyone else
sees it?"
I reach out my hand, it is here, and there, and right where you
are, you can take it, hold onto it whenever you need to, or just
because, that would be wonderful, my hand is your hand.
@rambler_dick Thanks for your comments. All good questions.
Things are said the way they are, at the time they are for
whatever reason, or even no reason, I can't know, I'm not in
control of the content like one would seem to think I am, so
however it comes out is just the way it comes out. Maybe, it
will make sense to you later on, maybe you will find what you
are looking for, advice, how to break out, after all the only
one writing anything here is really just you. I think if you
could just move onto the next chapter after reading this one it
would be "easier" but it is what it is, like it is. Maybe, if
it ever gets "published", a good editor will rearrange the
chapters in a way that makes it easier for the reader because
I'm no writer and I don't know anything about any
"universities."
Love to All,
Sandra Anne

Came in here to see what all the fuss was about. I dont have
much to say about what you wrote. Cant confirm or deny that
there is or isn't a you anyways so no argument from me there.
Although it seems like a lot of something coming from a
proclaimed nothing.
What I know is the undeniable self verifiable consistent
experience here and well, that ain't it.
This was true..."you must go it alone."
Thanks for sharing

The self is a lie, so... Every "self verifiable" experience is
bullshit... Just my 2 cents

My three cents is everyone go an find out what is real for you.
Not what you think is real, but what is unchanging and thus
always real.
Happy hunting.
Love ya, Jed.

"Theres no self"... Good news in my book... Very bad news in
Maya's...
Ahhhhhh the relief of being free from that entity is just so
great...
Now I am underlying reality that permeates everything... And
life has never been so alive
That whole illusory universe we see around looks like an
enourmous waste of illusory time, and a crap load of
silliness...
... But again, just my 5 cents
