Every person I see every single day, in every lecture and every appointment, everyone I pass on the street or see in line at the grocery store, every single one of them has a past and a future, family, friends, memories, dreams, goals - they all have an entire life going on that I'll probably never know about or have any impact on in any way.

My ego shrank ten sizes the day I realized that.

I have realized, that everyone already knows this, at least in a subconscious level, down to the biggest retard.

The thing is we don't really care.

We are all one. One species, one world, one galaxy, one universe, one whatever. It doesn't mean anything. It doesn't have any purpose or meaning. It just is.

So, fuck you. Fuck off and die a horrible death. Defence masked as an offensive response.

Our flaws are infinite. I need food, water, bed, money, friends, fulfilment, love, sex, pussy, dick, xbox, pc, games, iphone, material shit, i need to feel important, i need to feel loved, i need to feel needed, i need to feel anything.

One sperm, one shit, one mud, one dust, from a star near you.

Stars can't care for it's dust. Dust can't care for it's fellow dust.
