wall of nothingness
I pretty much like to spend most of my days in attempt to comprehend life, the universe, and everything. No really thats like my main hobby. Im actually studying to be a graphic designer, but im not quite sure if thats what i want to do or if i just came up with that idea to get everyone else off my back about it..i would actually prefer a career in philosophy..although thats not much of a career nowadays... oh and i would like to apologize right now for my butchering of the english language and its grammar system....
a while back i read some thought journals on the internet and i was amazed by some any-who it inspired me to search myself for my own ideas on similar subjects...i pretty sure that at some point or other most of humanity has attempted to comprehend the possibility of the world never existing. Some of my friends came up with a name for the weird empty feeling you get just after you do this: "the wall of nothingness" ...you know you feel all odd and you say to yourself that the world had to exist and you find yourself unable to apply any neutral logic. yes well during one epic pondering session, i found a way to comprehend nothingness and make it through the wall .....but its not a universal cure. you have to use a particular kind of logic..
i myself was stuck on the emotional distress of the whole me not existing thing.
what i did was...at the very moment where logical thought gives way into the blank emotion...i realized that it is equally impossible for anything at all to exist and i gained a huge, horrible feeling of mortality...i realized that we could all die at any moment and there is nothing any one can do about it. i am no movie star or rock god as i was raised to believe that i would someday become...*gay* im just a horribly average mortal joe. who, after all, has very little impact on his world.
so sorry if i stole anyone else's ideas during that i couldn't quite remember where some of that came from...
on another interesting note..... i gained alot of ground against my own fears once i had finished this epic session of thought...i guess i realize that life isnt worth living if you spend it all just worrying about how you-re going to survive
