Have you ever felt invisible against a crowd, beneficial only to the inconspicuous, wholeheartedly indifferent with not one thing to hold you down and only guilt and a obligatory sense of duty keeps you from saying goodbye, for the messengers condemn you every time because what else have you been taught besides the fact that life is a gift, to live is a blessing, a birth is a miracle and death a sad passing.
Life is truly wonderful though, there is no denying that, excluding scientific explanations, there is no fixed answer to why we exist. How many people spend so much of their precious life pondering away that very question. Why do we live? Why are we here? For what purpose, what reason – someone please make it clear. Or are we just being too presumptuous.
Is there any real reason for our existence, was there ever really any in the first place. We humans are the only living entity in this planet we share with so many various different entities, who call ourselves humans. And it is only us humans who call all those various different entities animals, sub categorized into reptiles, fish, amphibians, mammals, cats – you get the idea. But aren’t we also just mammals in the end. Science seems to colour this world in a ugly yet incredible shade of grey, where all fables and myths and stories seem to fade away. It is too exact and it has no passion, no fiction only fact, fact, facts. But it is the scientists who lead our way, with crooked politicians and behind the scene money makers making sure we are not lead astray, solely so they can remain higher up than the stars where not even justice can seem to reach them.
Or maybe I’m just being too pessimist here.
But looking around at the world of today, it’s hard to find passion and if you do have passion then it seems equally hard to find a way. There is so much good in this world but it’s the bad that overshadows, dominates, commands us all and peace is fundamentally just an hopeful word for the ones who still care.
We are all geniuses in what we have achieved, united in how we’re connected, technology has surpassed us all to the point there is no going back but each day we only grow more wary, more guarded, only more suspicious of each other. We are able to see what’s happening on the other side of the world but these images are mostly of deaths, dishonesty and despair. And the truth is no-one really seems to care.
We are all too busy, trying to make a living and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Nothing at all. But sex, drugs and rock and roll, accumulating useless expensive/inexpensive material hoards is not why we should work so hard. We live only one life (whether you believe in reincarnation or not) and a lifetime is really not enough, but if everyone is silent about all the troubles of the world, nothing will ever change.
Where is the love in living if your life is only measured by material possessions, popularity and fame – completely useless things really. Why create more divisions than there are already. We should really stop pondering and arguing and ignoring. We have exhausted this world and all the creatures who exist within – it’s time to make a change or pretty soon this wonderful life we are given will not be worth even living.
But then again now I’m being too presumptuous for all I’m doing is pondering.
