Everyone’s life is composed of waking up, eating, shitting, talking, going to sleep, and doing it all over again. Not a single portion of that list has changed in 10,000 years.
We have lived in boxes made out of rock, mud and mineral since the beginning of time. We have eaten vegetables and flesh and fruit since the beginning of time. The endless cycle of wake, eat, sleep, wake, defecate, eat, sleep, wake, fuck, eat, defecate, and sleep since the beginning of time.
We live and think in 2 and 3 dimensional space. Until that changes… life will always be familiar
Innovation is a beautiful thing … but the fundamental issues of humanity have not changed… Fear, lust, hunger, pain, age. I want time to stop. I want hunger to no longer exist. I want to understand that which is impossible for me to understand.
We wave our aluminum and glass trinkets around as proof of evolution. How different are they from the shell necklaces and beads our ancestors made? I wonder … until we can step outside of the constraints of human thought, how will we ever evolve?
