Existential Prose Part I

Everyday is the same hamster wheel and mind numbingly difficult moments, that we fight to get through just to return to them again tomorrow. But to what avail?

The important and precious moments continuously eluding us. In every aspect of life. The things we fight to get through just for the sake of peace yields no "light " at the end of the never ending tunnel. Because the tricky bastard is always one step ahead, mocking me.

There's no point to anything. Nothing makes sense other than you hurt. Moments of clarity and real happy feelings few and far between. I'm talking everything. A recent trip "back home" reaffirming how nothing really matters.

Superficiality abundant, alas, no one really gives a shit. I could move to Siberia for all anyone cares. Or be on the first non return shuttle to Mars. Maybe I come back, maybe not. Probably not. Would I even Want to come back to this Earth? What welcoming force would there be? Which toxin would I inhale first?

At the end of each hard earned "achievement ", the null void hits me in the face, harder and harder each time. What now, taunting me. As though I really knew.

Nothing. Promises of a brighter future a mere illusion. There is no such thing. Existence is exhaustive. What's my point? Why am I here?

Really, very touching prose! It reminds me of my song: When Your Last Breath Slips Away.....Which was inspired by the dance of Shiva and Shakti.
And I say that as one who's as close to atheism as possible while still considering a speck of meaning when it comes to existence....But, yes, well into Nietzsche's​ 200 years of nihilism.......

Thanks, i would not mind reading your song:)

You've got an incredible gift.

I am still trying hard to make my existence as comfortable as possible, enjoying the good things that comes to me every moment.

That's a good outlook. It is increasingly harder for me to see it that way
