Have you lost your job? Are you stuck in a loop? Do you wish you were on a island in the sun? Have you got enough money?
Putting things into prospective, any things, you'll find that nothing really matters. Do we live a computer simulation or is it the 42nd generation of that simulation? Do world's conflict exist for the sole matter to be resolved in the parent simulation where the world is already ruled by Skynet? Does that sound crazy or is it not obvious are we are several generations away from a cybernetic revolt?
Perhaps we exist. Perhaps we live dream or perhaps we were born into bondage. We might be free to do what we have to or slave to responsibilities.
None of that matters. We are but, an insignificant particle of dust in the universe. Why worry about anything? Life doesn't make sense or has any purpose but to be lived. It so happens between you and your conscious at the end of it all. It is not about doing what you are supposed to to. It's about doing the exact opposite. Tell someone they can do anything in life and they will do nothing. Tell someone about something they are forbid to do and they will do it.
Live like you'll die tomorrow but learn like you'll live forever. Anything that merely fill your time is a distraction. Anything that you're not supposed to do is a clue.
There is an infinite number of distractions along the way which will take your mindset away. Take off at a any station because love and kindness, pain and sadness. All the stations in between. They will derail you, they will assail you. But you won't fail yourself for there is nothing more to life to living, chasing your dreams. The only constant is change. The dream is your life. The life is to borrow a human body for a limited amount of time. Too little time to give up on the pursuit of happiness.
" Waste some time, waste some money. Talk about your wasted years. They devastate you, complete and complicate you. Never minding your wasted tears. Don't you worry till tomorrow. Heaven knows you surely will. Think about it, take one last lap around it. Close your eyes and let your mind release.. " Rest your head
You might not have travelled the whole world but the wildest place to explore is your mind. If you can transcend your own personal experiences and create new ones idly, your potential for knowledge is increased tenfold. Apply that same basic concept to the thought process of not accepting yes or no, but that everything has a possibility and choice and outcome (like creating microcosms in your mind in which perhaps a single blade of grass was at a different angle at an approximate time on a specific day and postulate about how it can/could change the fate of the singular and hypothetical universe in which we currently live in relation to the one we really do live in), then you can expand your thought process to completely account for anything. If you can also assimilate other peoples experiences by putting yourself in their shoes to kind of see it through their eyes(kind of hard to explain), then you can expand further. Even more compelling is the thought process of this: try imagining that both of your eyes were on one of your hands, and your face was the same except for your eyes not being there. When someone takes a swing at your head, do you raise your hand to protect yourself; or do you turn your back to protect your hand? Perception has many forms..
The mass loves think tank. Let religion takes decision for you. Some american brand turn you into a corporate billboard. Let some newspaper tell you how to feel and what to care about. Let the TV fills in the void of your life. Let a football team decide on your emotions. Ignorance is bliss. I see people, I see shoes, some run, some are steady, some have families. It seems you know their story when you see them. Perhaps you can tell indeed. Maybe their outlook tells you what you could have been if you were to go by the social conventions. What society done to them? We were all born infinite consciousness but it is now a beat up child that screams in a long forgotten place of ours.
You can hack brain. You can start learning now. You can start living now. Rise your conscious by being free. Fear is a useless emotion that only holds you back. It does not help you stay alive. It helps you stay dead.
We are nothing but a pale blue dot in the universe. "Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam" (Carl Sagan, A vision of the human future in space)
We are all made of stars and nothing can stop us now. We are here: a pale blue dot in the universe
