  1. To disconnect is simple. One will take themselves away from something, be it family, school work, religion, etc. To truly find comfort is to reconnect. Disconnecting with world, at times, is good, but after while, one must bring themselves back to reality to continue with their life.

  5. Without the internet, Thomas was rather – well – disconnected. Pun intended. It had become such habit to find out what his friends were doing and when they were, so much so that they ignored his calls occasionally, figuring that his sister had stolen his phone – since Thomas was more of an im sort of guy. So now he was sitting on the couch when he could be out at the movies or something. Grand.

  6. the world is disconnected from reality, i think. we live in such a constant realm of idealization, and this sort of contained view of how we desire out class and society, that we fail to pay attention to the things that are really out there; the things that really matter and make an impact. and only when we can open our eyes to this imperfections and disadvantages, can we really overcome the egocentrisim that has ruined us all.

  7. Disconnect? It sounds very ominous, being honest. I’m sure a politician would say “temporarily disengage” or some other soft option if it came to it. I personally don’t like any word that relies on another word for its structure. It’s Doubleplusungood.

  8. i have disconnected from almost everything I know. at least physically. However this “scary” disconnect has left me with an entirely new life with which I have connected almost completely.

  9. I can disconnect my laptop from the internet, my television from the power outlet and myself from my parents. So why can I not disconnect my brain from either my mouth or anything to do with you?

  10. i disconnected my laptop one day to find that the battery no longer worked. it was rather depressing not being able to leave a wall and surf around the house any more. i wished 4 a new computer
    but all was lost computers cost money and i dont have that.

  11. i feel so disconnected. where does this lead me. where does it end? i don’t know where to go from here. is the only way up? i can’t look that high. i can get that high. take me higher. take on me. life is a boat you can chase with. go faster. get connected. wires. cross-wires. cross-hairs. there’s no time. feel the breeze. faster. stronger. knock you over. down. for the count, you’re out. can’t win this fight. it’s done.

  12. I am overshadowed by the trees and can’t see past the mist, low hung in the sky. The moss on the ground and trees absorbs all sounds. I can not hear a thing. I keep walking on

  14. I can disconnect from the tears of my past. I can disconnect from the fears of my future. I cannot disconnect from my now.

  15. i felt like i was disconnected so much from everybody around me. i didnt even know their names. it felt horrible. how can we so easily disconnect from the people we love? is it stress? abandonment? i dont know. but i hated it. and i didnt know why.

  16. once you walked
    strong and proud
    and strutted about like a cat.

    but your bones have cracked
    and your muscles atrophied
    and your tendons fell slack

    and you crumbled apart.

  17. to lose
    to forget
    to think deeply
    to understand oneself completely to the point of being content with everything around you

  18. The plug disconnects itself from the outlet. All electricity is lost. The lights dim, the generator’s purr diminishes to awkward, disturbing silence. Words are lost. All is lost.

  19. Sometimes i feel so disconected from my friends, family and the world, that i don’t fit in. I often wonder if anyone else feels the same way I do. Sometimes i also like to disconnect from myself – and view myself from the outside. It’s hard to believe that I am where I am now.

  21. disconnected from my own life.
    i search for all the destroyed wires.
    in hopes to repair my dreams.
    but im alone in this world.
    disconnected from him and from her.
    but most of all from myself.

    and now i long for that connection more then ever.

  22. sometimes my world is a fragment of the things contained within my head….there are shards of light, pieces of sound and the ability to synthesize a whole from a small shard of my existence

    i want to put them together in a way that makes me breathe

    will i? dare i?

  23. the battery from the car to stop the world and swing round the attention to those that really deserve it and the desciions that must be made without the influence of others needs or wants, It should be what is best for you and you alone and you should still remember that not all things can be decided and will not happen as planned

  24. Everyone feels disconnected in some point of there time to people, god, and most importantly there selves. This word could also be used to say well the bridge isn’t connected, instead of isn’t connected they’d say disconnected.

  25. with all the things i could have done i had to disconnect the plug that engaged the whole city to live with there lights and power on. i felt so terrible, but no one could ever find out though, or coukld they?

  26. He shivered, his mind in utter disconnect.

    The road.
    In front of him.
    His son.
    Dead.
    From starvation.

    Should he eat his son to survive? Could he survive the guilt? What good would another day on the road be to him? What is the point of anything when one is alone, all love and purpose lost?

  27. Thats what we do when we are down.Get away from the world and find a place where we can hide.

  28. there’s a certain disconnect with the world tonight, there’s no need to be a part of anything,

    have you ever felt more solitary, in a world where you are your own person and you will never have your own idea… you are very much so not connected.

    in a place where you will always be surrounded by other people and their tellings of what to do, can you hear your own voice?

    are you Ophelia, are you the one who does not speak?

    don’t look too far for your own voice.

  29. The disconnect between the “Developed” or “First World” countries and the “Developing” or “Third World” countries is quite stark. The former view the latter as a den of poverty, evil, and sin, while the latter simply wish to carry on living their lives.

  30. I feel disconnected from God lately, from my old self, from my real self with is the self that I have in God. But instead, I have been feeling rebellious and cynical and like I would rather just go out and party than try to live putting God as number one. I do want to reconnect with God though because I don’t feel grounded without Him. It’s been weird living like this, like on the surface. I can’t breath without God. I have to go back under the water to where He is so I can live.

  31. In order to disconnect on a real level, we aren’t talking about computers or other technology. We’re talking about society. You must distance yourself from the petty things you think you know and believe in, and really take a look at society and what’s important. You think Bush did a shitty job? Maybe he did, but the world is more important than that.

  32. i wish that i could disconnect myself from everything that is going on around me. all of the troubles within my friends, my family, my school. I want to become enlightened, see above everything else, to disconnect myself from this world, from the feelings any human feels. If i could do that, I could see the point of existence.

  33. The feeling inside me when we sit across from eachother. So much emotion and so many memories in that one minute. that song, the smell, that noise. We lost that and can’t get it back. You are a stranger. A year ago you were my closest friend.

  38. he used to talk about missed connections. an incoming flight that arrived late, a couple of lines in the newspaper. he said he meant to miss me but never meant to miss me. i understood there was more than one meaning to the word.

  40. come disconnect the dots with me, a song by of montreal, some remixes have been done but they aren’t really all that great. it’s a wonderful concept, though, the song is. i mean, we spend all out lives trying to connect the dots, and sometimes you just have to take time to throw reality into a pond, let it free over, and ice skate on it.
