I think people generally are lost, as they keep thinking about what is going to happen and what they have done. They are not alive anymore. The art of listening is missing. In their head, they are doing something else.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
All the new thinking is about loss, In this it resembles all the old thinking.
Most of the folks to whom I listen are concerned for their future. Too many of them know someone who's out of work, has lost their own job, or fear they might. And, they increasingly believe that the opportunity for a better life for their children is slipping away.
I think a lot of people get lost. They start following iconic figures and get drowned in the pool of celebrity. Our society, as we know it, is definitely changing. With social media and cell phones, you freak out when you don't know what's going on.
The losses of the natural world are our loss, their silence silences something within the human mind.
The minute you start talking about what you're going to do if you lose, you have lost.
'Lost' makes a lot of sense to me, philosophically.
I am not lost. I am very much alive.
Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.
The interpretive element of 'Lost' - the fact that you immediately need, as soon as the episode is over, to seek out a community of people to express your own thoughts about it, understand what they thought about it and form an opinion - that's the bread and butter of the show.
The art of losing isn't hard to master; so many things seem filled with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster.
