The reality of anything lays in the details. Generalities are titles to stories and actually existing is where life starts happening. We live in a culture where mass produced crap(slogans, food, idea’s, images, desires) are rapid and called successful. So of course, people want to be successful. But if someone says the reason they disagree is because they’re Christian or they can’t eat that because they’re vegan or vegetarian or they don’t like that guy because they are a republican or they can’t continue on this crazy adventure because its not in their plan or against they’re schedule those are not real people. Those are title followers. The reality of life exists in every tiny step you take and not the name of the photo album you put every journey in; because the title is an after fucking thought!
To assume life will not change and will continue down ANY finite path is ludicrous and whoever does so should be tested for neural malfunctions. Your own story takes place in each NEW turn that your story takes you. If every part of the way was already known then it is already done and real. Nothing new is happening and somewhere along the line you became complacent and stopped changing, stopped growing.
Danger is part of change and the true excitement of being alive. As the universe bends so does it grow. Shouts in childhood of absolute glee and wonder at the world are only things of the past because we have found ourselves in an establish “safe zone” by people convinced they need safety more than they enjoy change and life. That is what society is, that is what a degree, a good job, Church, Temple, is. If you fluctuate through different churches, jobs, societies, degrees, ways of learning, ways of being, ways of seeing and continue to grow at the same rate one did before they were told how to do things, before they were scared of being different because that all of the sudden stopped being cute and started being bad even though it was actually just unpopular. Every step down one’s own real path is unpaved and yet we live in a very paved world where people need to, do, and continue to repeat paths every moment of every day of every year. We don’t live different because we have broken our brains.
To grow is to live is to be in danger and is to be excited if you are true to your own path and not lost in one set for you. Believe in you and set your own values, take or learn from others but this monstrous regurgitation spreading the plague of uniformity is ironing out the lines on our brains, cutting off the spiraling tales of humanity, and destroying the planet and people we live with. This is not truth for it can not be as it was truth. An old idea worked somewhere else. A new one is needed now and that is where truth lays.
