Can the unattainable be lost? She pondered while surrounded by the clutter of excess caused by the burdens of consumerism. To be on an endless journey, an odyssey of sorts, with plenty of valuable moral messages, but an obvious lack of conclusion. Is there worth? She had found herself on such a path and recently resolved that it was one from which she would never disembark. Searching for a way to dive deep into the sea of words swimming within her cerebrum, in order to pluck away the excess gunk and strike gold. Years slipped by, at first unnoticed, except for the measure of improvement upon lined pages. Still, she was unsatisfied, and would most likely always remain in such a state. Somehow she had been born a prisoner of her own mind.
