Temporal stasis...


‘If one thing’s uncertain is uncertainty’

-The Puppet Master

What happens next?

That’s a question we all fear. We, who strive to take control of our lives and environment, the strong human race which seem to be the epitome of evolution on this planet. We have conquered all, but we are conquered by fear.

The fear of loss, the fear of betrayal, the fear of starting again something that is doomed to fail…

Ignorance rears its ugly head, breeds fear, feeds it, raises it, and it sets fear free to roam and destroy us in its growing process.

Understand…set your mind to it. Accept things as they are, accept people as they are. Instead of expecting someone to change, why don’t we learn instead? Learn to deal with the problem, seek the solution.

Move, learn, grow, let go, send away, love yourself, enjoy life as it is, with the least of worries, and you will succeed in finding the happiness we all work so hard to get.

Lesson learned: No one knows what will happen next, but we can focus on what we can do whatever happens.

"No one knows"? Hey, are you calling psychics fakes?!

Seriously though, despite the veil between here and the state beyond, I don't think we're completely in the dark. We may not have the fine details, but most people believe that we transition to a better state, without petty issues to obsess about. And that the things we learn, the growth we achieve and the good that we do somehow benefit us after we leave Earth.

Some say that nothing of us survives after our bodily death and they question the point of life. Well, if they're right, does there need to be a point? Isn't living happily worth something? Why choose to live in a self-made prison of despair and gloom, as I used to? Philosophizing over unanswerable questions can be interesting, but when it begins to strangle my quality of life, I prefer the bliss of not needing to know.
