little strands of dna, a colony of cells, tissue fibres holding bones in place with enough space for sense carrying and blood carrying tubes, a blob of protoplasm held in place by an epidermis... then where do things like feelings and emotions come from. Are we blessed to have this or are we work in progress,are we guinea pigs in someone's experiment... Sometimes i want to pack my bags and go to another galaxy, devoid of emotions, devoid of the complications... family ties, friendships, relationship woes, finding space for me, work, money, food, sleep, laugh, scream, shout, cry, all the while forgetting to smile...
What are we here for why did we come here, why are we given to power to think. We all do know we are going to cease to exist, someday in the future our planet will be destroyed and/or absorbed by a greater force. At that moment the fragility of our lives our thoughts our emotions comes to the fore... Is anything worth skipping a meal, loosing sleep...? The fact is we are a tiny speck, on a tiny speck, in a tiny speck, on the face of the universe. We are trying to make sense of what is around us.. We started by inventing languages, arts, science, etc... so that someday a future generation will learn and know about us.. Doing all this with the same earnest that a raven bulits its nest... we all have an intrinsic desire to survive, to outlast... something that is not going to happen, but thats the something that will not stop us from trying..
