PONDERING PONDERABLES
Journal Entry: Sun Mar 16, 2008, 12:15 AM
So, again, kit has figured it all out. Simple, it comes to him again, a new breath of intellegence and foresight, allowing him visage into the deeper parts of society and mans truth. He has sit, for years now, pondering over all things. Gods, women, men, society, the future, the past, the present, life, happiness, destruction, and rebirth. He has found what he beleives to be closest to truth, though then he found the truth is a boring, mundane thing. So, what was his take on it? We all live. We all die. There are no gods. Petty things like emotions and love and present and past and future are all ideas to please us on our road in life, all things that keep us from embracing death. They are simply what they are, ideas. But ideas are strong. So very strong. Kit has continued to use metaphor to explain a significant ascendence in his life, a sort of splendorific expansion towards a mental state of knowledge, a new threshold only touched by few masters before him. Perhaps ignorance was bliss, but knowledge is power, and cliches are foolish. Does one really wish to know what knowledge can bring? Upmost pleasure. Knowing. Not having mundane attributes like fear. Knowing. Not having to worry about praying or asking forgiveness or evils or sins. Knowing. Having such a moral quality that you are an epitapth of greatness.
Eventually, Kit would come to understand that in knowing, one will know what truely pleases them and how to truely obtain that one thing. This is what i like to call the pure pleasure. Regular people are curropt, evil. They walk in no real direction, only furthering their own lives, only caring for things mundane and human. Only themselves. Only the ones they are close to. Only what makes them feel good. This is not the Pure Pleasure. The Pure Pleasure is found in knowledge. You must first know what you need. Then you must know how to obtain this need. The need must be true. If you do not have knowledge and you attempt to obtain Pure Pleasure, it will be for naught. You will most likely stumble and loose your way again.
There is a way of living. Everyone has a way of living. This Way is not usually particular, though it can be. A way of living is vital to the Pleasure of Everyday Life. I live in the now. The past has happened. You may look back apon it and regret something, but that regret will birth only further loss. The future has not happened. You shape it. Why fear something that may never come. I say that I will live now. Time itself is only an idea which keeps us sane, really. We all have this basic concept of time. However, the Way of the Present is not bound by the laws of time. In this Way, there is only the now. You may do something. That is now. It will have happened, perhaps, but for a second, it is a now. The past becomes a blur, irrelevant. The future dissapears, nonexistant. To see such things as important is folly.
Now, some skeptics will claim that you must plan your future and learn from your past. I say this inclines you towards failure. Learn from your past? That implies you have made mistakes. You learn from them. That links learning to making mistakes. This makes you beleive that if you err, you will learn. There are other methods of learning. Also, planning your future is not the right path either. To set limits on yourself is to bind yourself from flight. Simply snip your wings now, for in the future you will be bound to your plans and will not be able to enjoy freedom and a security that you are able to shape and change what is now, rather than then or later.
Other people will try to tell you things, make them seem deep, but in truth, these things are as shallow as the streams the flow through the woods in spring. There are some truths to what everyone says. I am not claiming that my Way is right for you, i am simply claiming that i have reached such a point of knowing and being that I simply understand what i must do to be truely happy. I know the secret to life.
Some will say the secret to life is happiness. Others will say there is no secret to life. I did not start on my road looking to uncover secrets. I started here becuase I wished to further myself. To becomes someone greater. To Ascend. I found out first who i was. This allowed me to move myself across the playing feild of life quite freely. After that, I was enabled to find out what the world was like. I soon found the path to superior being. In this god-like state of being, that was the answer to all questions. I now knew all answers. It became so simple, yet unbeleivable. The secret to life? Dont make me laugh. Life itself. Theres no secret to be found. Its like asking what color a yellow firetruck is. Simple.
One person once asked me what the secret to happiness was. I laughed. If you need a secret to happiness, i pity your soul.
People will ask me why i dont care about humanity as whole anymore. My simple conclusion is that they are evil. However, this does not mean i shun the individual. Everyone within this race is an individual. I will see you all as equal until one of you commits a wrongdoing, which will then show that you are less of a true saint and more of the exact definition i have for humans. Evil.
I am always confronted with a question of death. I have figured the answer. The real answer. You cannot fathom nonexistance. There must be some existance past this one. Think back. If you had never seen light before, it would be the same as the void after death. You wouldnt fathom it. We consider life to be the opposite of death. I say this is wrong. They are parallels. We exist, then we simply do not. It is a new experience. Why should you bind yourself to the idea you always exist? Are you not simply running from a new sensation known as non-existance? Personally, i think that it would feel peaceful, nonexistance. I will have to see one day.
