There are people in the world, who are just wrong, and then there are the masses of population that are right, or at the very least they lie in the veil of between. I on the other hand, do not belong to any group. I don’t exist. It’s not that I don’t have substance; I have a body like everyone else. I can feel the fire when it burns against my skin, the rain when it caresses my face and the breeze as it fingers my hair. I have all the senses that other people do. I am just empty, inside. . J.D. Stroube
About This Quote

This quote is about the feeling of emptiness that people feel when they are alone. It is about how people can feel empty even though they have everything they could ever want. This emptiness can be one of the most painful experiences in the world. Many people find themselves so empty inside that they try to fill themselves with others or things around them, but this only fills the void for a while. So many people think that they are empty because there is nothing in them, but it may just be that there isn’t anything in them at all.
