The universe is full of the improbable.
Irrational becomes rational with each new discovery. Evolution of
ideas and what was will be, but will never be the same again. There
will be something out there that can kick Chuck Norris in the nuts,
and makes cats and dogs snuggle like time tested friends. You say
impossible, I say unproven. This is the joy of the world we live in.
This is what makes the universe that is so fucking outstanding. It is
the concepts of our belief that is shaken each and everyday and only
a few things can truly stand to the onslaught of knowledge. Those few
things are sacred but only to a few.
Amongst this short list of things that
define my own morality you will not find simple things like love.
Love is a chemical reaction and the part of the only two things we
actually really enjoy (dopamine and serotonin). However discovery is
on that list. It is the joy of seeing things for the first time. It
may not be the first time they are seen by anyone, but those moments
that you get when you truly see something for the first time. That
wonderment that is evident in the eyes of children, and rarely seen
in the eyes of an adult. Discovery is part of my morality.
How can this be a part of my morality
you ask? It is not really something that defines right and wrong is
it? Of course it is, what is right and wrong? Well to me the ultimate
wrong is ignorance. Stupid is stupid and it is contagious. It is the
denial of things that deny us the truth of life. We are here to
learn, to discover, and to deny that is immoral. To embrace or hold
to archaic ideals because of comfort should make you ache in your
heart. To ignore the gift of your brain is a much bigger travesty in
the divine scheme of things.
The universe is a school with no
passing grade. It is knowledge for knowledge sack. Each door is a
passage to a new discovery. Each day an adventure into the unknown.
You have to strain to keep your senses open to what you can learn
from every breath. It is trying. It is difficult, but this is the
truth of life. We are not here to make friends, but to make it better
than we left it. We are here to build on what is know by those before
us, and to gain more paths for the future generations to gain even
more knowledge.
There are truths that can not be denied
and curiosity is one of them. We need to know how. We need to know
why. We need to understand when. The who is not as important, but it
is still part of the equation. Like each person we meet, each day is
unique and special. Each one has a message and something for us to
gain. So why wrap yourself up in who can marry whom? Why wrap
yourself up in things like who's belief is stronger or more correct
for the day? Belief is dangerous but knowledge is knowing that there
is more to be known.
In that redefine your morality, and ask
yourself what exactly do you believe? Why do you believe it? What is
truth? What have you learned? What knowledge will you bring to your
ancestors when you take your last breath? What discovery did you
make?
So stop being a douche. Gravity works,
the Earth is round, and get the fuck over yourself.
