So, do me a favor and close your eyes. Now, think about where you are at this moment. Next, look at yourself from a third person perspective. Now, pull way back. High above you, into space, outside our solar system, leaving the Milky Way. Look into the infinite depths of the universe and think about this: What are we really doing down there? How have we become so busy working towards certain goals? Why do we really have goals in the first place? When did we become infatuated with success? What are we all really working towards? And ultimately, what is the point? I catch myself thinking about how small we really are and in turn, question why we as humans have such complex brains. Brains that create beautiful works of art, moving music and splendid literature. Brains capable of abstract reasoning, language, introspection, and problem solving. Did a god really create us? If so, what does said god want from us? What is the big plan? Or are we merely another stage in evolution and over the course of billions of years we will have evolved into another form of genus homo? Why do you think we exist and what do you think you were placed on this planet to do?

Hi everyone in world. I’d like to go on a camel caravan in the desert with the Bedouin people and learn to work with camels. I ride horses, and greatly admire the Arabian horse. I’d like to ride a pony across Mongolia. Are men basically responsible for wars? I can’t decide. Love you all.
