Manu's Crypt
My purpose in the following text is to transmit a way of thinking that can lead you to living life more pleasantly, and might help me as well if I need to be reminded of this. Background knowledge The existence I know has always been inside this universe. All the things have been here, new things slowly get invented and introduced, but everything makes sense. So it's important to be taught and exposed to things that exist, and have discussions about them, because that is what you are going to be playing with. This becomes especially important at some point when you realize people around you don't know much. Life is very long Existence is incredibly long and you will mostly act towards a noble goal for many years, with lots of physical experience but no refined mental world to live in yet. This goal is either survival or moving towards a promise. The energy will build many things along the way. This is you, things are happening to you, through you, building yourself, experiencing higher level decisions. The things you get to use get built by hand in a time that is very long and short and unquestioned. This is you having fun and pain. Life becomes mental Your intelligence gets upgraded, you get new perspectives through the ability of interpretation. At this point life becomes very slow and many things happen through your actions, and you get to experience this personally. Modes of life change quickly, ranging from absolutely deranged in a state of survival to completely care free. You ditch old paradigms that motivated you to do insane and random things out of instinct and imagination, to not caring about your fate anymore. You experience history, travel, war, creation, friendship, views, magic, science, economy, survival, luck, characters, time, in reality, because you can see the subtle differences. At this point the world you are in physically becomes very small, but a lot of different things exist around you, and that is what will give you a lot of your meaning. Movement You are bound to achieve travels, and heights, and depths, with your own two legs, which might be the only real physical vehicle you got. This is movement through time and space. Another agent of change and provider of views. The view is part of what gives you meaning. In your head you move in other creative ways out of narrative and technology. Riding During your energy phase you got inside many vehicles and rooms. These connections remain. You are still there. What you see You understand that moments can represent a lot of those years of building where you didn't have a full mind yet and thus you get more careful with what you do. You understand that there has been a conversation going on for a long time. You realize you were never told that everyone was playing a game, you were not invited, but now you can play. The world becomes silent and hostile in places that were once vibrant. Things changed. But everything is very interesting. Freedom Mental and emotional freedom come through the realization of several things. You realize that you've been defending yourself against established enemies when anything can be your enemy, or your friend, depending on current configurations. You realize you can actually acknowledge a momentary pain or conflict, because life is very long and your energy is very varied, meaning change will happen to you and others. The ones wanting to hurt you might have been hurt by you, the ones wanting to live at your expense might have paid for your living, there are no better or worse. Everything works out while you continue existing because good fortune is at the reach of anybody and arrives in many forms, short or long, well known or more creative, as long as there's always something that keeps people playing. Fortune changes form so you you don't always have the same tricks or advantages, it makes things interesting, this is needed to have a fun long existence. Knowledge and skills determine what you get and for how long, but change is still inevitable. Bad decisions hurt you, foul play hurts others but you will know what you did, and that leaks. Shame has to lose its power over you, don't be afraid to live a varied and crazy life; laugh at what you do instead of trying to predict how observers judge you. Real life? Great potential and change in the sudden long life you get, but do you get to experience first hand everything you are creating? Does it end when you filled up the universe with your inventions and entropy realizing you paved the way for yourself, was that the little life you got? Maybe. But I'm expecting more.
