Insignificance of the human race. 2.0
There's so many unknown answers in the universe. Some want to believe in a higher power ; someone or something that explains everything we can't explain and can't even being to grasp. Some want to fill this void with misinformation and false revelations of self-awareness. We create reasons and explanations for everything, for things that our brains aren't physically capable of making connections to. We are so inferior and so oblivious to this fact.........
We have all these things to distract us. To distract us from thinking fully about what we can see in front of us. TV internet, politics, radio, newspapers, books, music, inventions, paintings, drawings, poems, singing, performing, crafting, cleaning, decorating buying, selling. Basically anything we do that isn't "necessary" to our survival.(If you did not know the only things you need to survive per say is water, food, and air) is pointless. But why do we do these things? What is the purpose of these things? And why do we make so many things to fill our time when some can't even achieve the basics? We could build whatever we wanted, but it wouldn't last very long. We could sing whatever we please, but it will be forgotten. We could be the most influential person on the whole earth and it really wouldn't matter. Because the thing that you find so important, really isn't. Maybe to you it is. But to the whole universe; its nothing more then poppy cock. What does the universe care about equality or music or giant skyscrapers. It could tear it all down in one fail swoop if so pleased. But we still build up and up and up and up and we never once stopped and really questioned ourselves "does this really has a purpose in the whole scheme of things?". If you think about it our building's will crumble, paintings will disintegrate what we think are the great writings of our civilizations will mean nothing more then the delicate paper it is written on. If humans weren't here to control, contain and preserve what we find important. If the whole of the human race was exterminated today. What would care about all of our stupid things we've "accomplished". Nothing would care, everything on this world would go on with their lives contently. The creatures on this earth wouldn't be anymore effected by our disappearance then your food is when a fly lands on it. But we still have these things. These tasks to fill up our time and help us evade what is right in front of us. And that's that nothing does matter on this earth. Nothing we do will ever matter. And we go around caring so much about these materialistic and superficial things. We revolve our lives around the sole fact that we can entertain ourselves on something else. Something better, newer, prettier, softer, cleaner, faster. A simple example of this fact is hygiene. A big thing in all 1st world country's. It is not socially acceptable to not care about ones own self hygiene A part of this "important" ritual is shaving legs. There are little girls in my school who obsess over the fact that they have not shaved that day and then it becomes all they can think about it and it effects there life so much that i makes their emotions change (become shy and more reclusive). And some people would say that is horrible, young girls shouldn't be caring about how they look. I think we like that we can obsess over our bodies because it is something accessible and easy to understand. We love that we can distract ourselves with extremely simple things and almost procrastinate over everything else that is going on around them. You know what else falls into this category is knowledge. Our knowledge of this world is as superficial as you 63' tv. All of our math and social studies and ELA there just as pointless. There just something our society has conjured up so we aren't all complete unsocial freaks. So the younger generation can waste there time too just like the adults do at all of their menial jobs. Because we really need to know all that shit when all of us know we aren't going to use 50% of it. I'm not saying that i don't partake in these useless past-times. I do and i love them as much as the next person but i realized all of these things and.....
The bad thing is is that there's so many people who have lived on this planet and died and never once thought about this before they did. Or they didn't want to.
