I suppose you’re right
My life would have to have meaning to be a joke
And I suppose I’d have to suppose a pretty fucked up being who would laugh
Hermes not withstanding, Hermes is a jerk
I should probably suppose you see these moments and cry too
Oh great Creator
It’s hard to know whether you even know we’re here
Besides those moments that come together perfectly
As massively ineffectual as all the other massive beings out there
Simply being in this space where being can happen
And what a wonder that being can happen
That a star can burn
Collapse
Explode
That this place is even here
That planets form from young stars
It’s honestly impressive
So I suppose your feelings should be just as impressive
I wonder if the chaos is an image of you or what occurs within you
Perhaps you are a great being of chaos
But the order within the chaos is what is most magnificent
The places so many things come together and meet
This moment that the sun peaks out from behind the gathered clouds to warm my body
A body that formed from unity in the chaos, order, in what would seem entirely wild
It makes me think we should follow this philosophy in life
Live in a world where order and wildness are balanced
If we could engage with the wilderness, become its companion instead of its antagonist
Bring some order to it
Food for the hungry, shelter for those that want it
Domesticate everything only to the point that we are enriching everything
Maybe domesticate is the wrong word
Keep the wildness
Just make sure everything’s needs are met
The worst part is we could
If all the minds of the world saw comfort and felt fed
I wonder what better worlds we could dream up?
Humans claim capitalism breeds innovation but humans got to capitalism, the response was communism, they somehow decided, “this is fine”, and stopped dreaming up anything new
Binaries exist
But humans are obsessed with them
This whole it must be one thing or the other
Just take a look at Earth and tell me exactly how many one things actually only have one other
There’s always some other thing
One more kind of lizard, twelve new frogs, a species of lotus we’ve never seen, this space is a creative space
We should create as well
I should be kinder in my image of the universe
I should remember that I am far too simple a being to understand their stance on the issues we face, but the creativity of the universe is something humans should embrace
Things should always be developing and growing
Stagnation doesn’t breed anything but feeling stuck in a rut.
Now tell me how many people these days feel that way
