I always feel shit when I get attached to people that have died. Just the fact that they are no longer on this earth, and learning about them by digging through cites and such. Especially so of their stuff they main on the Internet, left there untouched.
At this moment I'm being attached to Harlan and is website is still up so I've been slowly looking through it, but it just feels wrong. At the same time, I feel some comfort just from learning more about him, so it is very conflicting to me what I truly feel and should feel.
How do others even do these things with their own attachment to popular people, particularly to those who have pasted? It's like that whole thing with Kurt Cobain's journal being published, and those how liked him bought it and read it wanting to know more about him, while others criticized them for doing to and saying it was too much. I personally will never read it myself either. Kind of a shit connection to it, but I hope you get what I'm saying. Just that it's there, I go digging thought it as much as I want or even search on the web for information, but without the presence of them it feels almost as if I'm trespassing places that should be left alone.
I really just want to know more about them, just know that they were a person that lived, that maybe I do share some similarity with them. That maybe if we meet for whatever reason that it would have been a nice one. I don't know it all over the place with feelings like these. I don't help I feel differently to other people, some when I say I like someone is different to what others think that means. Furthermore, I hardly use love and liking isn't something that is very clear. I don't think I loved anybody I just always liked, well... in the terms of real people.
It's something that I get made fun of, or to the very least poked at about who I like and how I express that. Mainly that I don't say I love someone or even outright state that I love, always like or attached. Along with the fact that a lot of people that I like are dead and don't much people that are alive that I do like. I mean I do have someone that I love, but that is something I probably will never have a chance at expressing that to them or do I fully know them even with how many years I have known them...
I just suck at finding people and being happy and content about it. They're either dead, famous, or unavailable.
