That void

Tenía que haber leído este libro anteriormente. Alan me hizo el favor de recomendarme "What I talk about when I talk about running" de Haruki Murakami. Tiene unas frases con las que coincidimos muchos los que corremos largas distancias. El famoso void que también era mencionado en oatmeal. Dice así:

"I just run. I run in a void. Or maybe I should put it the other way: I run in order to acquire a void. But as you might expect, an occasional thought will slip into this void. People’s minds can’t be a complete blank. Human beings’ emotions are not strong or consistent enough to sustain a vacuum. What I mean is, the kinds of thoughts and ideas that invade my emotions as I run remain subordinate to that void. Lacking content, they are just random thoughts that gather around that central void."
