Why do people go to sleep when they have no guarantee they will wake up

If you couldn't touch or taste or smell...what would life be like?

If everything within our lived experience and existence is finite, and death is infinite with no end or no beginning (imagine a circle), once we are no longer living, it is as if life never existed. Because there is no beginning or end to death, simply a lack of either, anything existing outside of death would be completely irrelevant and unrelated.
What are your theories?

Just remember…

They know
If we all stopped arguing and fighting and started unifying
We would see the real problem

And that is the rich are using us
Keeping us at odds
While they get richer
They build their paradise
And we fight over scraps

If we would unify, we would reject them, they would lose their money and become like us.  Unable to afford basic necessities.

This isn't left or right or black or white

This is the rich vs the poor

And we are failing horribly..
Fighting with each other, and not our true enemy.

Wake up plz

Through unity, through diligence and vigilance we can take this all back.

We can create lives where we are comfortable and safe and sharing in our joys.

Unity ❤️

The Divide

Musings I've had while on vacation visiting my childhood home, leading to existential quandering. 

1. Everyone we've ever known are just memories of our interactions with them.
Parents, friends, children, everyone is a collection of memories from our perspective given an identity. Which means that our understanding of people becomes so much more out of date as time goes on.  

2. I am a collection of memories to everyone I've met. Expectations and understandings of my actions and motivations are lost to what's remembered and perceived. 

3. There's the expectation of behaving or acting within the scale of what is understood for me. What I should be, who I was to the people I care about. Being a good son within what understanding what that means for my parents. The roles and responsibilities as a father, as a brother, as a friend. Knowing how I'm perceived and understood.

Perception creates reality on a small scale. Which leads to this bizarre 'unveiling' when you see the same people, the same world I grew up in, with new eyes. Seeing the massive church I went to is just a building. The Stately Town Hall in town is just an old crumbling building with shiny new facade on the front. The adult's I remember being larger than life are now just... people. Insecure, anxious, trying their best in this world same as me. Everything suddenly becomes unreal as past perceptions get shattered. 

Good times
Pin unrelated, but pretty.

The Real-Unreal - existential crisis in three parts

I myself am very weary of anyone that believes in the end of the world, those are the ones that celebrate death.

The end

The only God that I know is real
   Is a part of all of us
King of kings
  Is the reason we war
     And the reason we love
I see and touch it everyday

             $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
                 Money is God

Faith

There is more gold than wood.
There is more food than people.
There is more earth than water.

What Defines You?

Grow and learn from your trauma
Don't become it, or give in.

Im never gonna hear I love you, or I'm proud of you...

So Im gonna say it to you,

I love everyone, and I'm proud of you.  

You've made it this far, and there is unlimited potential ahead of you.  Be the change, don't give into the fear, and share yourself without shame.  This life is a gift, and I hope you don't waste it.

You got this 😉

I truly love that I got to grow up at the same time as this show existed. Getting older with this show is amazing because it's chock full of these moments of wisdom.

I drink from chaos, cause i need constant challenge and permanent change.

"The most terrifying fact about the universe is not that it is hostile but that it is indifferent."

How much do you enjoy your own existence?

If it's supposed to be the best form of economy, why is there a 1%?  Seems to me like it's the best for those people and not the rest.

Is it really free will if you're choices are do what I say and be rewarded or don't and be punished?

Free will

Inspiration from existentialism

Existentialist questions.. I assume most people will ignore this post and think “I deal with the finiteness of my life and the inevitability of death by denying it, ignoring it, or escaping from it. I fear it more than accept it because it terrifies me to think that one day I will cease to exist and everything I have done or experienced will be meaningless.”

How do you deal with the finiteness of your life and the inevitability of death? Do you fear it or accept it? How does it affect your attitude towards life?

I don't think people understand how detrimental comfort is to society.  Conviences and instant gratification are killing us slowly.

Destroying a better future.

It's almost like we need the pain and trauma so we grow....

Give me death

There is a version of you that exists in everyone you meet.

Me and you

How can someone go their whole lives without contemplating the absolutely overwhelming idea of the vastness of the cosmos? That breaks my brain.

A mapping of mental head space takes lifetimes but I think I understand now why this could not be written or described. Its singularly unique.
What looks like garbled words made up of random nonsense is in fact some form of order. I'm not sure how or why but things do tend to work this way for some people

Things you won't see on sidewalks anymore

What if?
There exist a collective conscious mapped out like our universe.  
Anyone with access could easily experience each individual conscious at will without limit to time and space.
What if then most of our access has been cut off, one sided? 
Could our brains be biologically altered, controlled, and harvested  by a hive organism?
  This collective conscious? 

Probably not 😂 lol

Collective conscious

No need for concern, or extended meaning

I need to get out of my own head

It's mantra and literal.  By remembering this and taking time to consciously regulate your breathing you can improve your circulation and help brain function.  Take a long deep breathe into your belly and when you're almost full do one last quick inhale. Then slowly release, do this around twenty times.  Remember the mantra, Don't forget to Breathe, and everytime you do, practice this.

Don't forget to breathe

I guess we all are in someone else's story 😂

Are you a NPC?

Irony

As the imagination flies what tide so do too to mine eyes, lying in guise, what truth you might surmise, is not reality improvised... and there is no way of knowing where you are going along the river while we are rowing as the shift keeps growing, rhythmically time keeps sewing.
Oh but it is true, this is where all truth is. For it was true before it came to be. Was not the man who flung bullets via combustion at another creating truth by imagining he would? Oh there is no folly here, no, the imagination is so much more than we give it credit for.
This is why, it is important to develop it from a young age, that you might stay sovereign and uncorrupted.

Carl Jung is one seriously weird amazing dude
