I saw a post over the weekend with the word formality written in it. And I'm stuck on that word - formality.
There is definitely a place for formality. Eating, libraries, public transportation, society - formality, right?
But it appears to me that everything in today's current life is simply a formality. There's no purpose behind anything that we do. Whether it be dating, our jobs, or even ourselves. It is all routine-based formality, just to get whatever task we are trying to get done, done.
Part of me that thinks this is why I struggle anymore. Because formality doesn't apply to every aspect of my life. Purpose does, or should.
To me , formality is a guide, and purpose is our being. And when formality overrides purpose, what is the point?
