Hammock - Tape Recorder


Latest Doctor Who: Brilliant.

Why do we end up where and when we end up? What are the reasons behind the moment of time and space you occupy. Think about it. You're not where or when you were born or even five years ago. And you're not where or when you'll be five years from now or even at the time and place of your death.

Note: if your death is in close<b> proximity </font></b>in time and/or space to this post, something's wrong. You do not want your last moments on Earth to be my words. They're not worth it. Anyway....

A school of thought that's easy to accept is that everything is random and therefore meaningless. If the universe just happened then everything else just happened and there's no meaning to existence. You could also say that meaning is subjective and it's our job to find meaning in something and yada yada yada..... But if everything is meaningless then nothing would exist. Even death has meaning.

Meanings are subjective, yes. But meaning itself is universal. The "why" of everything. If anything happened for no reason then it's possible that everything happened for no reason. Note: It definitely is possible that everything happened for no reason, but that's no way to live. How would you get out of bed? Now granted, we may never know the reasons behind certain things so we usually chalk it up to "shit happens." But there is a reason you shit, right? So there is a reason to "shit happens." I think I'm rambling now....

Another thing to consider is the gravitas we give to everything as well. Some things hold more weight than others. Again that goes back into meaning and maybe some meanings are less substantial than others but that doesn't mean they're meaningless. Anyway....

Life has its share of ups and downs too. And there's a reason for that too. Can you imagine being on vacation for the rest of your life? Seriously think about it. You do nothing til the day you die. Even if you're at some resort or on your perfect vacation, imagine doing that for the rest of your life. You would go to bed knowing that tomorrow would be the same as it was yesterday as it is today. Flat life, huh?

Where was I? Yes life.... I wrote on alt that life is a sine wave. If time is really a flat circle, it's a circle in motion. The smoothness of up and downs, and repeating our actions. But because we're in motion they're not the same actions as they were before. Essentially the meaning is different. Hiatus sucks, I'll say that much. And the realizations just keep on coming....
