Have you ever thought about the life and the importance of the things within?
When i say things, what do i mean by that?
i mean every aspect. Things you buy, people you meet, places you own, beauty you see and the feelings you connect with that…
I’m sure you think about it right now, don’t you? (if you don’t.. DO IT now hehe)…
Have you ever thought about the life and the importance of the things within?
What is important for you? and what stays your whole lifetime? is there anything that lasts infinite? other then yourself?
What about the things you buy? do they last forever? do they last at least until you die?
No. Most things get broken.. No physical thing lasts forever.. only if you keep it in a veeeeery good safe.. but does a physical object make any sense in a closed and hidden safe?
Things in Safes are so Important for people, that the only way to keep it, is to hide and forget it.
What about the people you meet? do they last forever? do they stay until we die?
No. Most relations (even if they are just in friendship) seem to split up time by time and why? because everyone’s moving.. moving ahead.. against everyones very own goal. and because everyone has his/her own goal, there are seldom two ways who are heading the same goal, and if they do, they usually meet right before the goal.
What about the places you own? your flat? your house? will it last forever?
No. Most people somewhen usually start to think their home’s boring. why? because it becomes boring.. because everything gets boring by time.
Same job, same friends, same love, same things, same places. The sophisticated human is always searching for the difference of his/her current stay. And that’s the ultimate answer to all those questions about the things, the people and the places. we just don’t want to be fixed to a permanent stay. We convince ourselves that this is what we want and need, but it’s not.
And so everyone gets sad if something breaks, some friend splits up, some love goes or the home changes. but what if we start to convince ourselves about the fact, that the things need to go?
What about the beauty and the feelings? do they last forever? do they stay until you die?
It depends. Beauty is always just a glimpse. a nice cloud, a great sunset (or sunrise), a beautiful person. But beauty always is a subjective sense. And your taste for beauty could change within time, but you always keep memory of things you once liked. don’t you?
At least what is beauty? beauty is the connection of a picture with one of the good feelings you’ve collected in your life.
So, the memory and the feelings about the beautyful things in your life might stay…
… but isn’t memory just the thing that makes you YOU?
what’s that all about? it’s all about the one thing that stays forever, is always on your side and never leaves you, cuz it has the same goal as you. and you know it your whole life but you never think it is important.
start to think of its importance.
because it is important.
What’s the permanent stay, that’s always there when even everything’s gone?
The stay even if everything’s gone is you.
You stay, even if everything’s gone.
Have you ever thought about your life and the things within?
Maybe you think different now.
And maybe i’m in a totally distorted way of view? but for now, it’s truth for me. and it makes me happy, that the person i know best and i like most will die the same day i do.
Isn’t it good to be your own best friend? it’s egoistic and schizophrenic, but if you still can be nice and not arrogant within that egoistic way of life, you’ll become a goodmood happy person ..
at least i hope so
and now most importantly… No rule without exception. So if you don’t agree with me, that’s okey.. you might tell me through a comment?
Thanks to the silent Zeffie who inspired me to this.
