Manifesto Draft 1

After Reading Banach’s theories, repeatedly he makes me realize how much I want to feel connected to people. How much I appreciate all the people in my life and how they helped to make me who I am today. The arguments I get in with my parents, the family that I have, the friends I have kept; all my experiences with everyone in my life has a significance, they mean something to me. My authenticity threads from them. My thoughts, feelings, pains, pleasures, hopes and fears stem through and from them.
My mind is endless, but it is a sea of dreams, hopes, and desires. “Only we feel our pains, our pleasures, our hopes, and our fears immediately, subjectively, from the inside.” (Banach) I believe we feel this first in loneliness. When there is no one to share it with. We close ourselves off until someone comes along and tries to understand us or says something that reminds us of our own experience.
