nothing - exile

To what extent is the state of nothingness the existence of the traveler - always on the outside of culture - disconnected from a former existence - perhaps, in traveling, we believe that new horizons will help us change - the reality is that in travel we are distancing ourselves from an ability to experience change; we are simply stacking upon what is already there, not changing -

Anaïs Nin: "Because if you truly wanted to change, you would not be so impatient to leave. Your mind is fixed on the departure times of cargo ships!"


exiled in thought, exiled in body, exiled in...how can one be exiled when one is exiled in something. is exile an action experienced in a singular moment or is it a process experienced over the course of multiple actions leading to an existence of disconnectedness from one's former self, one's former reality, one's previously experienced existence - is exile a external state of matters or an internal feeling - what defines the state of exile - what contributes to the continuance of exile - is exile inflicted or sought after - exile, exiled, ex...ile - that which is no longer a passage way for self travel -------========---------==========~~~~~~~~~~{________}. . . ...e
