Journey to Nothing

What is reality?

Imagine a block of cheese.

Imagine something carves that cheese into different shapes.

Reality is the cheese, the shapes, the carving strokes, the tool that carves, and the intelligence that decides where to carve.


The future can be real. The future can be again.

What would you do if you met God? In the street?

Ok let's tone it down.

What would you do if you met your celebrity crush? In the street?

I think there would be many reactions to this:

  • Disbelief
  • Joy
  • Embarrassement
  • Walking on by pretending nothing's going on
  • Sign the T-shirt I'm wearing. NOW!!
  • Selfieeeee!!!!!
  • "...Kiss me gosh darnit..." blush
  • Don't do anything Ms Celebrity, just keep looking at me me me

Ok Zooey you get the picture. I mean... Anyhow.

How would you even recognise God?

Does God even bother to inhabit a human body anyway? Isn't God some sort of aloof asshole who decides to interfere with your life when you least want it? Didn't God die anyway, wasn't it Nietzsche that killed him, I think...?

Questions. Questions. Questions.

Fuck. What if you are actually God. I mean everyone else is just a normal run-of-the-mill human, but you are actually The God, The Creator. All those poor souls you interact with every day, the people you love and hug and talk to. And all that nature and all those cities and animals and plants and humanity and oceans and stars and galaxies and all that fucking empty space.

What are you supposed to do with all that stuff? Why you? Why this peculiar body with two arms and legs and a head? Why any of it?

What would you want God to actually do, if you met him or her in the flesh?

I just want God to look me in the eye and say "Hey, don't I know you?"

I came across this YouTube and was reminded of my old post. Keanu and Sandra are so clueless. Nicole Kidman? I would actually die. We're just people doing people things.

 


The future can be real. The future can be again.
