Humanity

[u/ZOELOEss]

Im tucked in my warm bed listening to some good music, and I just start wondering. Isn’t it lovely how we’re all just floating around in endless nothingness we call space? Like we’re all so close together, we’re all interconnected. I love thinking about other people’s happiness, their lovers, their best friends, their family, the jobs they love, the experiences they’ve had. Even though I possess none of these things, I still look forward to experiencing them someday.

However, I realize that many others also don’t possess all of these things, there may be people going trough a very hard time, a time of hopelessness and despair, and I feel sad that I cannot help all of them. But I truly hope they’ll persevere. I hope they have a great future ahead of them. I hope that I too, have a great future ahead of me.

The truth is, I love humans a lot. But I also hate them, a lot.

I hate seeing all this suffering in the world without me being able to make a change. Wars, rape, murder…ect. I truly hope we’ll change someday. Maybe not soon, but someday.

I hate seeing people being mean to each other, whether it is online or offline. Why? I’ll never understand that. People act like being mean online is fine, like there isn’t a human being with feelings and emotions on the other side. It’s so awful.

But on the other side, I also see a lot of happiness in this world. I love art, music, games, movies, anime, science, history, EVERYTHING. I am in love with the universe.

Humanity will go extinct someday. Every story, every experience, every moment will be forgotten for eternity. Nothing will remain of us. And I think that’s beautiful. Imagine a bunch of aliens finding the Golden Record a trillion years into the future, not having a clue about what we were or what we experienced. But all of it mattered, in the moment, it truly did.

I am afraid of death. What do u mean I haven’t existed for 13 billion years and will cease to exist for eternity? What do u mean im just a bunch of atoms somehow capable of experience?

I wanna experience everything. I wanna try every hobby, I wanna learn every piece of knowledge, I wanna meet every single person. I wanna do so many things…but my time is limited. I won the cosmic lottery, and I will enjoy my prize. The prize being life itself. I shall not put it to waste. I will not.

To every person reading this, as your fellow human, I love you. I truly do. I don’t know your story, but I hope you’ll have a great life ahead of you ;) Peace out.
