We are all Pretenders

We are all pretenders. We act as if we know what we are doing or where we are going. Nobody knows anything, we are all fumbling around in the dark looking for matches, occasionally one lucky fool will find a match and pretend he knows the way.  Then we will all follow blindly for a while until the match goes out.

Who are we and why are we really here? we are completely insignificant when compared to the size and vastness of the universe. A grain of sand on the beach is more significant than our earth when you look at it in the context of our entire universe. No wonder no one else has found us in the universe we don’t even exist. If the entire leanth of time since the big bang was compressed into an hour. The earth would have existed for less than a billionth of a second! and looking at our life span on earth you can see we are completely insignificant! the whole of human history is like the smoke you see after a match has gone out.

I really don’t know what we are doing on this giant grain of sand in the middle of nowhere going nowhere. All I know is this…

Human beings suck! we run around this grain of sand like we own the place when we really don’t! every animal every creature has a right to be here as much as we do and some even more so. This does not mean we cannot eat them when we are hungry dont get me wrong. this is a dog eat dog grain of sand and may the best animal win.

Why do we restrict ourselves with borders when in reality no borders really exist? its just a bunch of people who don’t want to share with everyone else and think because they have lived on a piece of land for a long time they own it.

Less than 5% of the worlds population control 95% of its wealth and the rest of the world goes hungry, yet there is food enough to feed everyone. The whole world is in debt but nobody knows who they owe the money to. Someone has spent all the money on the planet and nobody knows who!

I think i have done enough ranting for the day.  i end here with a quote…

God give me a  sign that you exist… how about you deposit some cash into my Barclay’s account this evening ? I could really use a a million.

Love Always

Alfy

    well well well, didn’t you just nail it?

    We are all pretending.
    pretending to our spouses (we really dont wanna be with them anyway),

    pretending to our bosses (we’d rather just say, ‘F*** off and just make sure i have money in my bank account by the end of the month)

    pretending to society ( we all walk around like we don’t ever take a dump)

    Pretending in church ( ooooh! i’m so holy!!!)

    Pretending to our siblings (you don’t have to like me cause we’re from to same mother)

    Pretending we don’t see a neighbour’s flashy car (damn i need that car)

    should i keep going?

    Alfy you are spot on this time

    signed: your lil’ sis. (at least i don’t have to pretend to be)
