MEANDERINGS

Do we really deserve that car, holiday, home, phone and loan? Are we without fault in knowing people live on the streets outside our door?

In the beginning there was nothing, then from the darkness came the light. And like a Faustian bargain, you cannibalize life to live until your life is taken.

The weakness in me I fear to see... There are things I've done, mistakes I've made and crimes I've committed for which I am sorry. I have my demon's haunt and my conscience's taunts. I hear the voices in my head and I hear your whispers too. I like myself more without you.

Do we all get to a point in life when we say fuck it all, humanity is not worth it. I just don't think humans should survive?

Hedonism has diminishing returns.

Life is somewhat like a Faustian bargain: Against probability we are born, we live and then our lives are taken. Hell being the state without God.

Can you see the two conjoined faces in the picture above? Which one is the Devil? Did he look at you? If you zoom in on his eye and find it is looking at you, read more to save your soul.

Only a fool thinks he can solve the worlds problems. But you've got to try don't you? Or at least act local and improve what you can? Fargo S01 - "A rich man who gave everything" scene HD - https://youtu.be/s9TOWIc_KLU
