The life we lead is not meant to revolve around chance, success, ambition, or self-desired goals, we struggle most not because life has truly failed us, but because we begin our lives with entitlement, we treat life like it owes us to be alive, when in fact we owe life gratitude we owe chance our respect for being the only thing that can buy us time. Looking around us we are surrounded by need, nature needs humans, humans need nature to survive, to truly live is to live a selfless life, our lives to mean something we have to live an impactful life. no amount of power or wealth can satisfy a greedy heart, the only thing that wealth and power can create is hatred, it will breed entitlement and boastfulness. Yes, love hurts, and life is ruthless but before us what was life like? before greed what was life like, before powerful leaders what was life like? what was nature like before us? Looking at how we treat nature I believe nature thrived before humans. Before there was us there was life, there was nature, there was time, we came and planted envy, and pain, and we built our existence on control and power, I wish we understood what our entire existence was, we were supposed to be what improved life, we were created to better life, to co-exist with time, because we are time. We are not greater than life, better than chance, we are not in control of life or time. We treat life like we are gracing it with our existence, to be alive is grace, to change who we are in the grace that chance offers us, what have we as humans added to life but inflict pain. It is sad to watch how humanity has ruined everything and continues to course chaos and destruction with the need to be in control of everything. How can you sit in the comfort of your warm house knowing some people are homeless, how can you feel satisfied with your riches when there is so much poverty? how can we celebrate billionaires when there are crime-infested communities, we celebrate greed. We work hard for ourselves, and we live selfish lives, why do we sit and tell people that they are not doing enough when life was fair, humans ruined life so much that we try to excuse our evil deeds by blaming life to be unfair. Before us there was life, there was time, before us there was peace and equality. Our first breath became desire, we desire more, we desire power, we desire more of everything. We desire change, a sight we see as an opportunity to control while our ego has made humanity foolish. We create not to improve but obtain power and adoration. For every invention, we require respect and power to feel better than, smarter than but really what are we f not the worse thing to happen to nature. Always chasing something, always chasing validation in the wrong place for the most obnoxious reasons. Wealth doesn’t mean one has lived a significant life, power doesn’t mean one has lived an impactful life. how you will be remembered?
