INTRO

We spend our entire lives trying to find something to do with it. We create these plans, and we complete these tasks, just to check off some list we choose to make. There’s more places to see, more people to meet. Life becomes either a task of searching for what’s next or a rather boring plan of repetition. Our brains have to justify a reason to exist. So, we consider the work we do in society as our way of life. We have jobs that we feel are the only way we can survive, buying the things we need. We reproduce because we think that’s the only way our legacy survives. Truthfully, we have been integrated into a life of service, which contributes to this mission of looking for what life can offer in return, but it’s not an experience of freedom, nor is it the life we deserve. 

Growing up, we roughly learn how life works, why certain things seem unattainable. We have to do this first, or we have to appreciate whatever that is before we can have what we want. We are taught what life will be like and how to navigate it. But are we really? This idea of learning is usually some kind of familial or religious tradition. We learn things through the rest of the world too, like schooling or laws, etc., and basically, we accept the wisdom of those in our lives, the ones before us, and the way of the world because it’s possible that’s all we have to guide us. So, we begin to live by their example, and in one way or another, we believe this is the “right” way to live. We fall into that same tradition, into patterns, that have the same outcome- an ending. But it’s what the world has shown us happiness looks like. We think that’s just the way it is.

There’s a chance to learn from the mistakes and the triumphs of our ancestors, a chance to look at the past, what we could have and what we can still do differently. It’s history. We hope not to repeat it, yet we take our inspiration from it. So whether we lose people in battle with others or within their own body, their circumstances were unfavorable to life. Why? And why should we follow this example? 

Human evolution requires change, and by following the plan that has been proven to end at some point, we repeat these patterns of destruction over and over again. We just.. forget that we have the ability to do things differently. We give up thinking we have anything else to offer this world other than generational ideology, and when we are suppressing these urges to do what we are capable of doing just because they don’t “fit” into the way things have been done, we are losing an important creative opportunity. We stay in the same cycles and our role in society becomes insignificant. 

So, what is life and how do we rewrite this illusion? We all have contribution to how the story of life is written. We all have the power to change the future. Every thought, every conversation, every way we find to communicate has the ability to alter the way of the world. 

We have to stop thinking we have to earn our best life. That’s exactly why we are here- to make our dreams come true.
