All of the things that make us happy whether they be money, or drugs, or even love are all meaningless. The only meaning they have is the meaning we arbitrarily assign, and desperately cling to. And what it amounts to, death, is nothingness, life is one big magic trick, and when the curtain is finally lifted, and the magician does the big reveal, you'll realize that there's nothing. I choose cognitive dissonance most days, I assign meaning to things like everyone else does, deep down knowig it's all just a fiction, but the older I get, the more difficult I find it is to blind myself. I hope you find fulfillment in life, really I do. But it isn't for me.
