lost

Right in the middle of the Zeitgeist.

At some point in life you find yourself right in the middle of everything that is going on.

But the Z waits for no one and is always on the move. For most of us it eventually becomes uninteresting, even silly and stupid.

Some try to keep up with it, they end up looking a bit silly.

Some try to maintain the characteristics of the Zeitgeist of their youth, they end up looking a bit silly too.

There is, perhaps, a middle ground. A place for us to go along side the evolving Zeitgeist. A neutral path where we are free to pursue the interests we have without the need to be part of everything.

The 'must haves' and the 'must be's' disappear. We can find freedom when we no longer have the need to make statements that have become irrelevent.

But river Z is always flowing nearby and many of us are stuck in it's murky waters. Unable to dive in with the current generation and unable to understand what happened to the clear flow we once were in. These are the lost ones.
