When a volcano erupts, it just erupts. No volcano management needed. Volcanos don't go around explaining away why it erupts, it just does. When a hurricane comes, it just comes. No hurricane management needed. Preparation by humans and some species, yes, but the hurricane doesn't say to itself I wonder why i'm going to hit, why do I hit these towns and cities, I need to fix that. No, it just rams itself into existence and leaves like nothing ever happened. Same with a tsunami and any other natural disaster.

A fly doesn't go to therapy because it keeps buzzing in your ear, it doesn't think to fix the fact that it eats dog shit then pitches on your burger in a grilling fest. A roach doesn't care that it invests your home and ants doesn't care that they form a line around the front yard and creep inside to steal your bread. 

The wind doesn't give a shit whose wig it blows off and whose skirt pops up because it blows, it doesn't care who is in it's way and it doesn't seek therapy and wind management for its destruction. The sun burns your skin and doesn't give a shit. It doesn't wonder who will suntan today and get burnt, whoever is in its way will feel it's wrath and it doesn't apologize for it. 

Now, all of those scenarios I just mentioned when they happen, we deal with it, we don't ask the hurricane for an explanation as to why it's coming and we don't look for answers and question a roach as to why it creepy crawls on our bed and we don't inquire about why the earthquake hit and destroyed our town, we just simply move on and adapt to nature's wrath. We just simply say a hurricane is coming, let's prepare. We don't take it personally and say the hurricane is coming for me, or a hurricane happened to me; no it's a hurricane and that's it.

Here's the thing. It's the same with feelings, emotions, seeming wrong doings, corruption, envy, fear, accidents, anger, whatever. They just come without any warning. I'm going to be angry now so please move out the way. Who says that. No, anger just arises. It comes and it goes just like an earthquake or hurricane. What us humans do with these emotions, however, is take them personally. We expect others to explain away why nature hits. It's my anger so I must explain why I was angry. I never have to apologize for a hurricane blowing your house away, but i'm expected to apologize for anger arising. Same with anything that offends a human, that we take personally. It's just anger, but we see it as my anger. I will get flux for saying this and it will be mistaken as shunning responsibility for actions taken and that's OK, I'm exposing truth. You want truth here it is. This is why I say humans can't handle truth. 

The truth is, there's nothing that belongs to you, not even suffering; it's just suffering. Not even anger, love, jealousy, rage, honesty, corruption, lies, peace, happiness, judgment, criticisms, you name it. None of it is yours. None of it is aimed at you. If someone tells you to your face that you're a piece of shit, you will not look at it the same way as if a tornado hit you in the face and tore your arm off. You will not tell that tornado to apologize and that it hurt you. It's the same thing only different object. Why then do we tell the person you rejected me, hurt me, traumatized me, embarrassed me and not go tell the earthquake while it's happening to apologize or that it's hurting me.

No, we as humans are different. We have a sense that whatever looks like us is just like us or we relate to what looks like us personally. The hurricane doesn't have a heart, neither does a pen. So we don't blame the pen for stabbing us we blame the heartless criminal for using the pen to stab us. The hurricane that used the zinc to slit out throats in passing isn't blamed and ostracized, we just deal with it and say nature is a beast and we don't blame the zinc.

To be human is horrible, it's the worst thing that could have ever happened in nature. That sense that has bestowed itself upon us is human's demise. We suffer because of it and personalize everything because of it. It is also in animals but the difference is, animals don't take it personally. They will fear you, but they don't look at it as you did me wrong, it's just fear but they've associated that fear with something - you; so now they run when they see you out of instinct. (Example there). They don't see it as 'my fear' or 'my trauma' it's just fear and trauma appearing. Us however, it's personal and if it wasn't personal, we wouldn't have to create stories about those fears or whatever happened. What happened just happened but because we have the capacity, we invent and create stories behind those fears and whatever else happens and now it's happening to me, by me and for me. 

It's a fucking demise and a sad situation - us humans. That sense is nothing but a bitch and we clap and congratulate a baby for being born and cry when we die. A baby cries at birth and a human is silent at death. I wonder why.

Imagine that you lived forever. I don't mean like we never die and we weren't born type shit. I mean your life as you know it right now but without death. Not that death is a concept and the Absolute only appears as a dead body with no one inside, type shit. Not as there's no one, type shit but you actually lived forever and ever and ever and ever in this same world and with your same life FOREVER. What are you depressed and sad about. We should be rejoicing life that it gives us some type of relief. Imagine if this was forever and there was nothing you could do about it, not even the s word because it just couldn't happen. Happy yet.
