So if you’re anything like me, you probably find yourself wondering what this all means a tad bit too frequently. You’ll be doing a menial routine thing, or maybe something that you once wanted to do but now lost motivation for, and you start thinking “Why?”. Why am I studying? Why am I working? Why should I learn this new thing when I could just be chilling? What’s the point?

And well, there is a point, of sorts. Try and follow me on this. We know that we all came from the universe/God/whatever you want to call “it”, and that we will return to it once we die. And this cycle goes on to create and remove more and more life until the conditions aren’t right anymore. New minds popping in and out of existence each going through their own adventures. Now here’s an assumption. Before this cycle was a thing, lets say before the big bang, there was only one thing. Something that wasn’t this universe. Something that led to this universe. Maybe a physical phenomenon, maybe a “being”- we don’t know-, you get the point. We’ll call this “it”.

Let’s say this was what happened: Before this universe, “it” knew everything. It knew the meaning to absolutely everything, it knew why and how it came to existence, it knew knowledge by definition. It knew all because all was it.

And well, after a while, it got bored. It knew and was everything there was, and it wanted to have fun. So what it did was that it found a way to do a big bang. It found a way to create this universe. A place where it could “forget”. A place where it could do things without spoiling it for itself by already knowing the outcome. A place to be planets and stars, to be trees and water, to be humans and animals. A sort of amusement park where it can experience the weirdest depths of existence. Sadness, happiness, achievement, love, friendship, struggle, learning. And so here we are. And you’re it.

We all have this chance to experience our own weird depths of existence and live as much as possible in our limited times in this amusement park. A lot of it isn’t up to our control, but a lot of it is. And after all, the whole point of all this was to have fun and not know in the first place, wasn’t it? Life will always feel greater than you because of that. So work hard and do whatever you have to do to experience what you want out of this life, but do keep in mind that you’re still in the amusement park!
