Hw#30-Psychological and Philosophical Theorizing of Cool

I decided to look up the sense of emptiness and i came up with this:

It seems as if we look at ourselves we are empty and just use things to distract us in life to full up this emptiness. There's nothing really there. "Sometimes we feel an inner sense of emptiness. When we look within, it seems like nothing is there, so we distract ourselves with something on the outside, like food or television; and yet, these outer distractions only temporarily take care of the emptiness, or more accurately, they only temporarily keep our attention. When the distraction is over, the emptiness returns." I agree that we feel up with objects around us to have no kind of emptiness but at the same time do we really know what it is? No we do not. I feel like everybody once in a while has had an empty part of themselves patched it up to hide it but then it slowly seem to uncover itself. I do not think we can find the emptiness because we always seem to hide it with things such as being"cool". Everybody always wants to accepted and feel like their somebody but at the same time that somebody is not them is that considered being empty?
