Random Musings

OK, so I’m really beginning to see a tie in some of this whole modernism movement.  It really seems like it conveys a sense of being your  own person, much like we saw in the likes of Whitman.  Yeah, I said his name.  But now, we’re starting to see this whole scene of being so much your own person that you actually become locked in isolation, that doesn’t get anywhere good fast.  I believe that that isolationism is based on an awkward inability to communicate, and a feeling of paranoia as to what would happen if the individual were to put themselves out there and present themselves in an almost overly intimate way with society.  It’s almost like a warning of allowing yourself to be trapped in your own mind.  And I think that that theme translates very easily into the lifestyles of the present day.
