you don’t know it now, but everything in your life is going to change. we ignore this is happening, we focus on the past and present yet without understanding that the future is also weaved into this our world. your friends, your health, your family and fortune will rotate like the seasons, feelings will rise and fall like the tides, enemies will come and go like the wind and eventually all will come to a stand-still. to know this allows us to come to terms with the going ensemble of everyday life. to grasp this allows each moment and feeling to pass equally by, with no awards or black-eyes to pin on our shirts or feel proud or ashamed of.
what will be, will be. some have thought long and hard about our purpose here, those lucky enough to get beyond surviving the day-to-day. to ask what the meaning of this all is, to live a life of pain and pleasure is to truly experience life as a human. if it is all for nothing, if the flowers come up in the field if only to change its color, then is this enough? should something have to have a reason? can one just live to live, can you go on a journey with not destination or live a life with no specific point in mind? many of us do, many of us think we have a place in mind to be and preoccupy ourselves with ending us there. we point to a place, an imaginary goal, and head in that direction.
like the universe expanding indefinitely our race to survive follows similar suit. with no boundaries, we hurtle in all directions causing as much commotion and attention as possible to make something out of all the darkness out there. we grab onto other souls, turn them into suns and create our own weather patterns. we collect objects, pets, pictures, which becomes the center of our worlds. we are as confused as it all, some of us, others clearly tasked at laying out the worlds we wish to call our own. somewhere far off in the past, present and future.
