Perceptions, Distractions and Symbols

Why are distractions so effective?

People often feel empty on a daily basis and search for ways to fill this void. Distractions can be appealing as a way to avoid dealing with this emptiness and can be a temporary quick fix.

A more permanent solution for filling the void would be to connect with your True Self. This can lead to self-acceptance which in turn can lead to a feeling of being complete.

I search outside for sparks of light

Transforming my wrongs into rights

I give advice along with hugs

Yet deep inside the void still tugs

My heartstrings play a melody

Touching my mind as symphonies

The sounds I hear distracts my brain

An endless task to fill with gain

I talk in silence to my soul

Meeting myself gaining control

– Mytika
