It may be that the comment is being moderated (in which case I have made a similar comment twice...). Never mind, I'll be over there again some time :) @Brian again,

I've been over to your blog and read a few entries. I see you like to study different philosophies and religions and describe yourself as 'a sceptical westerner' - that sums me up too :) Love the photography by the way. And those self portraits. You didn't mention what the last one was about. Well that particular shot, for me, sums up loneliness quite well.. Self-determined, self-aware, but on your own. Or maybe I am reading too much there... And I know just what you mean about not being able to relate to those around you - even when they speak the same language as you. I often want to yell 'shut the hell up' too. But that's not very sociable, is it ? Thinking about it from that perspective, maybe it is good sometimes to live in a land where I don't completely understand the language. At least I can switch off to it for a while :) Hi Brian,

I wouldn't say that I suffer from depression, although I have several family members that do, but I do often suffer from a similar symptom...loneliness. I get this feeling most when I'm away from home. But I often get it at home, because I just can't relate to the people around me. The sunlight does help, and I bike a lot (often by myself of course) and that makes me feel good. But sometimes its just like a big slap in the face when people are talking and you just want to yell "shut the hell up you freakin idiots", but you smile and say "yeah, uh-huh". Do you know what I mean? Well, best of luck, and keep writing away. Feel free to write or email me. hi frayingedges blog writer,
