Whatever, your life doesn’t matter!

You are born into the world as a good luck, good charm, with the love bestowed by two humans who regard their child as the most important thing in their life. You open your eyes into the world lived by your parents feeling safe and loved. They do everything they can to make you grow strong. They teach you the ways of the world. The unknown and scary world that you feel is mapped by your parents way of living. You feel strong and confident to take on the world on your own. You tell your parents you can take the world. They bless you with all the goodness they can ever comprehend and you move ahead. Soon enough you see the world is not what it seems. Like Gautam Buddha you get out of the palace and see the sick and evil that revolves in the world. You step up to break them one by one. You succeed at first, beginner’s luck, they call it. Soon enough you fail and your parents help you get up and you continue the fight. Once enough of failures accumulate you see a pattern of the world. You see the lies that you’ve been fed by your loveable parents. Not that they knew it was a lie, they too had the same meal given by their parents. You see the wrong path and rebel going against it. Your parents tell you God will help you, only if they knew God is an unconscious complex conjured up because of the incapability to think deeper. The world if you decide to see deeper gets uglier and doesn’t transform itself into a heaven. No matter how many times you want to get out of the patterned life, you can’t get out. It’s too late. The monetary loans have weighted you down already. Nothing you do will ever make you escape the dreadful world made to good look by your parents. You question how do you parents live in such a world! How does anyone? There is still no answer for it. Not a lot of people have questioned it. Anyone that does, is surely to be declared an insane person. With a heavy heart you look into the eyes of your parents and don’t see the frustration that is absolutely necessary to be able to change the world. What else is there to do? What else do you suggest? They question you. They tell you about what they’ve sacrificed to get you in this position. And that answer doesn’t extinguish the fire of questioning the world. Rather than questioning life, do what we tell you to do. They might say. Or they might not. But it doesn’t matter. You are stuck doing exactly that and everyday you feel like it’s not worth it. But does that even matter? Of course not. How can it? The restrictions that fall onto you are needed to be removed and how do you do that? Earn a living until you retire and then enjoy the freedom. The only other option is to die. So live on. Be strong. And give up your dreams of figuring out the world. Thank you for listening.
