When i began to study the nonsense ... i realized that ... behind the nonsense there is a path that we can’t see.
When i say nonsense ... i mean all our silly actions ... or thoughts.
We live in a robotic way ... and even if we are not happy in the present moment ... we just continue everything in the same way ... on and on and on.
One day, we even start to believe that we live in a prison ... or prisons.
The job is a prison.
The marriage is a prison.
Everything around ... is just a repetitive way of living ... having no sense at all.
There is no joy of being alive.
You actually have a life similar with the one of the people from North Korea ... but the problem is that you are the dictator ... and you was the one that somehow chose the prison ... or even built it.
No one forced you to go at the job you have now and actually you can change it anytime.
No one forced you to get married and in fact you can change the partner ... or just ... simple divorce.
You see no difference between your world and the life in North Korea ... but you don’t know why.
Well ... let me tell you the truth.
You accepted the nonsense as your main way of living your life.
You are the one that is responsible for your unhappiness ... and in fact ... you are also the one that could change everything right away.
The nonsense is a pathless path ... that actually goes to your soul.
Accepting its presence ... defining it ... you realize that beyond it ... there is indeed a path.
The present moment.
Enjoy it!
The prison ... even if it is only metaphoric ... or a real one ... is the best place you could be ... but you need to understand that the only secret is that we should enjoy life and feel alive.
I’ve started to write my first book at 16 … but then … realizing i could not publish it … i’ve abandoned the idea of being a … writer.
20 years later … i’ve started to write again … believing i will finally succeed … but i’ve failed one more time … not getting the success i was chasing for.
Another 5 years later … i’ve started one more time to write … but this time … more as a therapy.
It’s what i’ve defined as … self therapy.
I was analyzing and defining lots of weird ideas … that were a lot related to me … and my own soul.
I totally forgot that i was chasing for success.
I was simple writing my thoughts … in essays … becoming this way … maybe not a writer …. but what many define as … an essayist.
This is not a poet … and not a writer.
Or maybe is kind of a poet that is incapable of writing poetry … but is still expressing his thoughts … into a similar way … as a poet.
And is not a writer … cause have not the ability to write for too long time … about the same subject.
But maybe i am not an essayist… either.
I am just an ordinary person … that could be better defined … as a thinker.
Analyzing … and defining my life … practicing this process called … self therapy … i started to understand life … and the way to better paths which i should follow.
And i’ve wrote … and wrote … and wrote … realizing one day that i’ve published tens of books …. not really understanding how the hell I’ve succeeded doing that.
Today i dare to recommend writing … as a therapy.
I could even say … it’s a simple way of understanding who we are … but also a process that could help us … heal our souls.
I personally continue to … write.
It’s in fact … a non ending story that … at least for myself … will probably continue for the rest of my life.
But over all … i am glad … i am doing it.
I continue my philosophical journey … not being able to define myself for clear as a writer or an essayist… but …
Well …. most probably… i am on a good path.
And … i would dare to recommend to everyone … all what i am doing today.
