We look at out lives and wonder why we feel so empty. The food we eat, the media we consume, the drinks we drink often times empty as we settle for convenience. We participate in yoga void of meaning as we stretch unconsciously, with little regard to the original goal of the practise, we think we are who we think we are, our lives are just pacification of the demands of the mind as if that is who we are.
We buy, we drink, we fuck, we eat in hopes of filling something with feeling within us. This is a fleeting satisfaction. We seek friendships and keep friends who subtract energy and time from us yet they add nothing but misery. It’s the loneliness we fear.
We follow blindly leaders who shout sweet nothings confidently, it must be true if they say it confidently. Their actions echoing the nothingness as they consume the sweet in form of profit.
We pay before we pray in hopes our tithes will push out prayers to the front of queue. We pray to gods who divide us into them and us, they will burn in the pits of hell while ‘us’ enjoys the spoils in heaven.
We introduce ourselves by emphasising our job titles as if the foundation of our identity lies in ‘IT Manager’
Everything we consume takes us away from each other and even further from ourselves, as everything we do is framed in the dimensions of the IG square. The individualistic pursuits an abnormal division.
