Waking Death

I am not sure as to what the title of this particular post actually means, however, I feel that maybe it could apply to something. I suppose "Waking Death" could apply to the people I meet on a day to day basis. They are the reverse of discovering life, or their place in the world they live in. They consume themselves with petty concerns (How big will my paycheck be?) or simply unthinkingly pass through time and existence without any concern for the questions which could re-orient and even shift their priorities. Living unflinchingly in such a world seems to me to be a waste of existential potential. Oh well, I suppose I'm not here to tell anyone else how to live their life (just that they're wrong).
