I’ve wanted to write this ever since a few days ago, when it was still fresh in my mind.
For some reason, a few days ago my whole perspective changed suddenly. I now see the world in a completely different light, with a new set of eyes. You know how some guys on this site talk about how the rest of society is stuck in a Matrix-like world? Even though I may have agreed with it before, I finally see it.
Not only do I acknowledge it...I can FEEL it. I can truly sense it with every cell in my body...
Everyday is the same…every week, month, and year. I’ve seen, as I’m sure you have as well. But look closer. You will see that nothing changes. We race around from place to place. We rush to school, to work, to stores, and other places. Everyone seems like they are in a hurry…but for what? The term “rat race” fits perfectly. It’s a race with no end in sight, and it keeps repeating itself day after day.
Some people try to act like they are better than other people. As if they are in a more important race, or part of the race. The disparity between people is only a matter of egos…because most people are living identical lives, just with different relationships and different material possessions. No one is truly better than anyone else because in the end they will all be dead just the same. We haven’t evolved at all.
We get better technology every now and then, but are we actually making progress in the larger scope of human existence? Is anyone actually getting anywhere? Our end result is still death. That’s regardless of what car you drive, how big your house is, what girl you had sex with, what school you go to, what race you are, or religion…it doesn’t matter.
The truth is, we are all going to die. Some will try to prolong their life, but in the end everyone faces the same fate. People are born and die just like plants come and go with the seasons. Whether you believe in an afterlife or not is irrelevant…as you have seen those die before you, this life as you know it will be over for you at some point.
But if the end result of life is death, then why do people take life so seriously? Why do people keep living the same lives over and over, even when there is an infinite sea of possibilities? Why all the seriousness if each of our life spans is merely a dot in time?
This is why I have begun to see the world in two parts. There are those who will always be in the matrix world. What happens to you here doesn’t matter because no one is alive here. Since they are not alive, there lives are meaningless. For the past week, at times I’ve felt alone and surrounded by zombies. Most people are asleep and they will never wake up. They may as well be robots. I can SENSE their non-existence, it's almost like they're not there...
There is another world of a few individuals, the real world. These are people who run the world, whose smallest actions create ripple effects around the globe that touch all of our lives. No, this is not about who is a DJ or who sleeps with the most women. It is about who is somebody versus who is nobody.
If you think about it, most events in history have come down the actions of a few individuals. When you read history, you will notice names of a few people. The armies are not remembered as much as their leaders. The workers are not remembered as much as the innovators, and so on.
So, there are two worlds…one where all of the great people exist, and the other where everyday is the same and no one really lives. When your life is over, will you feel anything? Will anyone even remember that you existed?
Point is, live your life. LIVE it. Since I’ve felt this perception of the world, I have been taking a lot more risk – in fact, I stole something the other day. I’ve decided I will do anything it takes, even steal, to break my way into the world of becoming a somebody. There are no rules; this whole matrix part of the world is a joke…nothing counts until you are in that other world…and when you are there, you are untouchable.
Fcuk ethics, fcuk the environment, fcuk anyone who tells you to be nice, fcuk people who talk ****, fcuk rules, and fcuk the law. Do what you want, whatever it takes to make the most of your life. Go out there and live.
