    I drove a moving truck across country for years. My wife was the only other person who knew it was actually space ship and I was an astronaut who delivered planet saving supplies to every stop I made. The universe was literally saved because of my “moving truck.”

    I've never really had problems with 'mundane' tasks or living a 'mundane' life, but I just wanted to hear Alan Watt's take on the matter

    *TO EVERYONE 👇🏻👇🏻*
    You're the best, always remember this and don't be pressure or intimidated by the success of others.
    Everyone has their own success story but different timing 🤔
    Don't compare your journey to those whose journey are different from yours....
    Time is on your side and your timing is different from theirs.
    Just Keep grinding👏🏾, because am very sure one day, you will also be celebrated.
    Have a blessed day
    *I Love You 🌸 ❤️*

    I don't want mundane I want what the book recommendation pushes for 👣 'The greatest adventure ever experienced' as achieved in the book 📖 'Phenomenon' (Amazon) now that really does smash mundane into oblivion. Great uplifting video 💡

      What is so wrong about dying alone in the woods?

      That's just a cliche.
      Where lunatics used to get
      and how they used to di@.
      Human wellbeing is organized
      around the cycles of
      need and satisfaction.
      I think that's the "meaning" of life.
      To experience the satisfaction
      springing from your need.
      You need oxygen you breathe in.
      You got thirsty you get water.
      You got hungry you get the food.
      You need clothes, shelter, freedom
      you get them.
      You got hrny you get the girl,
      you need intimacy, warmth, love
      or just peace
      you get them.
      Then you will need them again,
      you will be thirsty of them again,
      and then comes
      another breath, another drink, food,
      another hugging or cuddling,
      playing, adventuring, creating,
      anything.
      And if any of those cycles will break
      in any time,
      human wellbeing starts to decrease.
      You did not get what you NEED.
      You will suffer that.
      And that's how we live.
      With long time broken cycles,
      with decreased wellbeing.
      Suffering.
      We are continuously starving in the
      very different ways and levels
      way over our tolerance.
      And then
      these lunatics come
      and try to repair the broken
      need - satisfaction cycles with
      lunatic theories and ideas and
      ideologies.
      But they do just even bigger mess.
      They obviously fail.
      You cannot turn the water to wine.
      You must get what you need.
      Get all what you need
      in the right time.
      I don't deny struggle or the negatives.
      But everything should be in tolerance.
      But we're made a way what will mean
      suffering.
      Inherently.
      Those cycles were never working
      and will never work properly.
      For the most of us, there will be
      broken cycles continuously.
      'Cause we all are just the
      salves of this universe.
