For the first time, I feel very inconsequential and light. Like I have unraveled a secret of the universe. There was a time I held on to many things- memories, signs, gestures. Everything counted to something. In the past.
And then, something- someone died. A dream. An illusion. A piece of truth. A part of me. A memory. Or maybe just me. A concept called me in the past. When I felt I was something. When I felt I had something. Today- when circumstances come together to strip you naked- and your soul bare- you realize that something was an illusion- either that or this. And then we realize it's neither. And that's life.
What's dead- now does not exist. The question is- did it ever exist? Even for me? Life is like that you see? It will make you snap into reality. Even if you have lived for decades. It just forces you to see things for what they are. Which is that we don't even own our feelings. And everything is inconsequential.
We are just random particles participating in Brownian motion- willingly sometimes and sometimes unwillingly.
