Perspective, pursuit, desire

I've learned that you can change your perspective on pretty much anything in life if you just set your mind to it. I've also learned that everything that makes me feel sad, depressed or inadequate are my desires. The only reason I feel 'not good enough' is because I want more. Is the answer to…

Aliens would think we’re losers

If aliens exist, and it seems likely that they do, and they come to visit us, that would mean their technology is so far advanced beyond ours that they'd think we're total fucking monkeys. Imagine a few generations down the line, when we've advanced our rocket tech or whatever, and we start sending rockets out…

juggling is stupid

I don't mean from the point of it's a stupid way to spend your personal time, but the concept of watching someone juggle is the dumbest fucking thing ever. It's like "watch me do this thing I've practiced for a hundred hours for no reason, be impressed. Be impressed by me". It feels so needy.…

Deserve (or: more edgy bs)

You deserve nothing. People espouse this idea that we deserve to be happy, we deserve love, we deserve respect. I don’t know where this idea comes from. Why do you deserve to be happy? And if everyone deserves it, what is even the point of saying that? If you truly believe that everyone deserves to…

more blah blah blah

I yearn for a cause. I yearn for purpose in this life, a calling. I've never been motivated to do anything. I've never really had any ambition. I don't think it's because I don't believe in myself, I think it's just because I've never found what it is that I'm passionate about. I have interests,…

You will be forgotten and that’s beautiful

Nothing you do matters. Not really. Not in the long run. There's an extremely small chance that you will be remembered further than a few generations. And knowing this, it really takes the point out of trying to make an impact on the world. This thought used to terrify me, that in time I am…

We all suck and thats OK

Maybe I'm a pessimist, maybe I'm a nihilist, or some other lame definition. I think a fundemental question that lies deep in the heart of most discussions or debates on morality is whether or not human beings are 'good' by nature. Man is good. Man is evil. In western philosophy, in modern times anyhow, it…

Are we fucked?

There's much to be said on the generational differences in our societies. I don't think enough weight is properly put on how much different it can be growing up one generation to the next. Especially with the extreme technological advances we've had lately. My parents grew up in an entirely different world. People were different,…

Choices

I rarely make any choices. In fact, starting this blog is the most significant choice I’ve made in a long time. I think it stems from my crippling fear of failure. Where that stems from is probably buried somewhere deep in my subconscious but I don’t have the capacity to dig it out. Even this…
