Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination.
The Way of Kings?
Yes, and it is such a good book series
“And so, does the destination matter? Or is it the path we take? I declare that no accomplishment has substance nearly as great as the road used to achieve it. We are not creatures of destinations. It is the journey that shapes us. Our callused feet, our backs strong from carrying the weight of our travels, our eyes open with the fresh delight of experiences lived.”
And we are also born to pet that borzoi snoot 🥰
Wild telling me what I was born to do. I was actually born to give it head scratches.
Well that part's self evident 🤷
Hey it’s Apollo the BORZOIIII 🎶
Going off the other comments, this is not a masturbation metaphor and i must've missed something to get the reference
The breed of the dog in the picture is called borzoi 😁
I love the optimism, but some people are literally born just to die. Remember we're the lucky ones that get to grow and learn and love and live, and enjoy what you have while you can.
❤️
The tragedy is that I'm done loving, being joyous, moving, learning, crying, and feeling, and yet I remain
How did you decide that you are done?
Mostly inability and when I can, it hurts too much
world is a fuck
I will never unsee "does a bork start just to finish?".
No.
We are born due to inevitable combination of events in infinite pseudo-randomness*. We are simply chaos processing energy to spread it out until there is no energy potential left.*If the entire universe/multiverse (if it has an effect on our universe) could be accurately simulated, it would become predictable. Basically "fate", except there is no purpose.
AFAIK Quantic indeterminacy means quantum randomness is real randomness (see Bell's theorem).
But it is the fact that it will end that gives our life meaning. If we didn’t know that it’ll end our lives would just be an endless loop where because it all happens nothing will matter. As Todd May says “One has a place in the cosmic process of which one’s own existence is a fleeting moment, but a moment nonetheless”
