I don't understand

Sometimes I wonder, "How can all of this be real?" Everyday just seems less and less real to me. When I hear people talk, see the news, watch or read something, it all feels so unreal to me. Is this normal?

Is it normal to question your reality?

All this talk of God, all this talk of war, all this talk of death and sadness and hate. Why is this real? How could this be real? Doesn't everyone understand things don't have to be this way?

Does anyone have an answer to my questions? Are there answers? If there aren't then why are there any questions?

Every time I open my eyes I feel as if they are only half open, everything is blurry, out of focus. Distant and hard to make out. When I hear anything it seems strange as if its a foreign language I've never heard before.

Why do we perpetuate this existence? Is there a reason? Or is everyone blocking the truth out?

The truth that things don't have to be the way they are. We don't have to kill to survive, not each other anyway. We don't have to live in fear for out lives, hoping either the next day gets better or it doesn't come at all. We don't have to bow down to anyone for we are all the same. We are no ones slave and no ones master.

I am the ruler of my own world but I know I must rule along side every other person on this Earth. For without one another, and without our Mother Earth we are truly without everything.

Why do we create all these things that separate us? Why do we continue hurting each other?

Why? PLEASE someone, tell me why.

Because.......



I don't understand.

  1. This is what I was trying to explain when we were drunk with, "It's all just a dream, man." We're born, we're brainwashed as children, we're slaves to money, and we're out. No afterlife. No notion that anything ever took place. We're as good as the dead dog on the side of the road, and people are too blind to see it. I can't answer your questions, I don't know how this started, but I know why it continues...lack of compassion. Straight up. It's a constant us/them mentality in every aspect of life: social class, bloodline, beauty, occupation, education, politics, religion, color, sexual orientation, penis size, thick vs thinning hair, people you hang out with, gang affiliation, sports, nationality, etc etc etc. Its been the "norm" for so long that people accept it, and if you question it, you're made to look ignorant. "You're going to hell." "Nigger lover." "faggot." It's subconciously beaten into people to go with the flow BECAUSE of our need for acceptance. Through shunning others we're given a bubble of friends, cut off from the pain it causes. I ramble. Call me if you wanna talk about it.
