"it's all about me"

Dear George,

Thank you for "life is in the inbetween".
This painting led me to a quite trip, and feel like I got lost (again?)!
I apologize if this letter does not make any sense.

I thought about the title “life is in the inbetween".
Everything in this life is in the in-between.
There is no good or bad.
It all depends on how we take.
Some say we can change the world as we want.
It might be so, if the actual world or life is depend on our choice.
But I am not sure about it.
It might be more like there is limitation how much we can take in.
We only take what we can, and it is only a small tiny part of all.
We can not see the things from out of ourselves, even though we sometimes feel that way.
There is an interesting idea that the total amount of happiness in this world is fixed.
I thought it is interesting because it explains the reason of winner and loser.  

I think most of us have the nature to want to be happy.
It seems that each of us is trying to fulfill emptiness with what each desire.  
If there is something 'Happy Ending', what is like??
Isn't Happiness a moment of feeling?
If there is reason for everything, what is the reason to be here as an individual?

Whatever I do...even I think it is for others, it is actually all about me,isn't it?
I often ask myself "What am I doing here?"
I feel like that I am just dealing with myself through my life.
As much as I think, thoughts become blurrier.
I sometimes think it is more important "I" as a theme than I myself am.

Thoughts are another funny thing. We cannot own it. They just come and go...
I remember the feeling of the moment that the thoughts became so clear, feeling like I finally
understood of all.
Then, when the moment became the past, I only remember how sure I felt at the moment, but do
not remember the thoughts nor actual events.
Because this happens so often, the feeling became as 'Nostalgia" in me.
'Nostalgia' is not belonging to past, but somewhere 'in-between'.

This time the title is,
"It’s all about me"

Love&Peace,
Rin
