I don't really want to do this, but I want to too

It’s quite conclusive that everyday we wake up, we are looking for inspiration, we are looking for something to motivate us and put us on track to finding a purpose or going about that purpose.

Time and again, we find ourselves inspired by what people say or said, or pictures of what people said in posts, posters and forwarded messages spammed into your feed.

Who coined the term ‘feed’ to the list of shit we tune into on all these social apps. Whoever did does not really think that highly about the consumers, the humanity that is. Like how derogatory was that person to have chosen to call it ‘feed’ of all things. I mean the individual definitely invented/discovered that the repulsive abundance of information was going to as critical as food to the users so I guess I cannot really blame the person. Maybe that individual is what you call a genius.

Motivational material, yep. What’s your type? I like to believe that after reading this book, you are going to give motivational quotes a run for the money. I mean if any influence comes out of this book and reading it, I think it will be to look at a motivational quote that you pasted on your wall and laugh at it or look at it condescendingly at the least.

I am not saying that I will leave you feeling like you are on top of the world. I definitely hope you are not going to find yourself in the bottom of the world either but I decidedly hope that you would look at a quote like -

“You are a lion, you hunt to kill, you eat what you kill. The dogs barking doesn’t faze you, you are the king of the jungle.”

NO ! You are not a lion. What the hell. No you don’t hunt to kill. You got to the store. It’s either you cooking or your mom or dad or wife cooking, or well if you are Batman, then Alfred is cooking, your butler I mean. Meanwhile, I have to make a point here. Alfred is underrated dude, like that big a house with a guy antisocial and borderline schizophrenic as fuck, like he becomes a bat-man at night, so for Alfred to cook and clean up after this absolute bipolar brat and not being dead already, that’s just one hell of a man. Alfred needs comics, not batman(he only deserves lowercase first letter). Alfred does possible-impossible shit you know. Batman does impossible-impossible shit. Alfred’s duties are hefty and you could say it could be done by a man with absolute will and mental discipline among many things. I mean, that mansion and then the other parts of it. The impossible part is he gets to sit down and read and decrypt after all that work. Like make sarcastic comments and patronize this bat-brat in such a relaxed manner. The amount of work he does and if he can keep that temperament after all of that, I should be ashamed of myself. I am doing only a fraction’s fraction of it.

Anyway I don’t need Alfred to feel ashamed of myself, neither do you.

Back to motivational quotes. Lion? Kill? Hunt? Jungle? King? Give me one hell of a drum roll, I am going to try and be me and be as motivational or inspirational as I can be.

“You are just another person, a being, just sentient compared to other beings. There is no purpose or meaning for you to discover or invent for that matter. You just make your life and time about something that gives you the best experience it can as long as it can. You just remember that it could just all be over in less than a second and you can’t do shit about it, not even in the advanced future. So just be kind, just go on about whatever, make yourself feel good and others too.”

That is longer than I expected it to be but I guess that’s alright because I am going to be coming up with so much more inspirational and motivational and reality check quotes that you can do whatever you want to do with.

One of my other passion is film making. I have to try extra hard to not be so pompous and dogmatic about it when I talk about it so I don’t really talk much about it, or anything for that matter. Anyway, you should see the movie The Big Lebowski (1998) by the Coen brothers. I think it is truly thought provoking and most importantly reflects a lot about you or me, whether you like it or not.

Can I like advertise myself in my book, like my website and my YouTube channel? I guess I can but I am going to try so hard to find the best placement until I don’t and I can’t. But I will do it. Let’s get productive.

I have the intent to make you a better human after reading this but is that a good thing? To be a better human? An amplified and enhanced version of who we are now. I am not sure if that’s what we are going for. I think what we must go for is a completely revolutionary version of ourselves, one that is all things good or mostly good if that is more possible.

My mind - Technically revolutionary version of ourselves is impossible to achieve.

My mind trying to act like another mind - What about something on the lower grades, like a refined version of ourselves.

My mind - That sounds a little less than enhanced or amplified versions of ourselves.

My mind trying to act like another mind - Fine, how about just better me and better you with more good things and less bad things.

My mind - Is that possible?

My mind trying to act like another mind - I don’t know. We could try, there is no harm in trying.

My mind - Of course not, but that’s what we have been doing. That is what we have been saying about what we are doing.

My mind trying to act like another mind - So… just… be… I guess

My mind - Yeah. Sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes the bear eats you. It’s always about eating anyway.

My mind trying to act like another mind - Eating? Bear? What are you talking about?

My mind - I don’t know man. What is your problem?

My mind trying to act like another mind - What is my problem? What is our problem dude?

My mind - Okay, I need something with lots of cheese to eat, let’s go.

My mind trying to act like another mind - Okay but you are broke.

My mind - Okay I need some water.

My mind trying to act like another mind - Fine.

My mind - Fine.
