When you realize...

When you realize the weight of Einstein's (or supposedly so) quote - "Alles was wir machen ist falsch" - it changes things. 

I think Hunter S. Thompson maybe got it, I'll look into that.  His actions lead me to believe he'd seen this light.

What I take this statement to mean is that "nothing we do is real"

Maybe the zen buddhists with their backwards poems that don't seem to mean shit to me get it too. Should look there as well.

If none of it is real, then...well...none of it is real.
Where you aren't afraid of what happens in a dream because you realize it isn't real, it's a good feeling.

When you realize nothing at all is real, it's not so much fun.

There are so many stories and songs and movies and books trying to explain this to people, but 

hey, you can lead a horse to water

Try convincing other people of anything it's impossible

JB and KG really might understand me, if I get the purport of their lyrics - I'd like to someday ask them

What would NEO have done if he had a wife and two kids back in his apartment? What would be the right move?

I heard a story once of a potter who became impassioned by a certain crackling glaze from a long time ago

He devoted his life to it. His family went hungry. they had to leave him

He almost died of starvation

but he got his crackle.

Who the fuck cares about stupid shit like that?  All of us.  

All of our shit is Stupid Shit. It doesn't always feel that way.

But then we remember ol' Al E. and his big brain.

Knit me a sweater with 'Don't sweat - it's all fake'

I bet if I read some philosophy, I might find that I ascribe to a certain system.

That would be neat to find out, like a genealogy of belief revealed to me. I should read more.

The challenge I avoid, is, 

If you know it's all bullshit

but they don't 

do you go chase a crackle?

When you know there is no season and no sun

it is still fun to sit in it.
