This is one hell of a brain upload, and I have no clue why I desire to share this with any of you. Strongly believe that humans have created our world, the societies, the languages, the beautiful buildings, and the tools. The human imagination, innovation, and ability to follow through is the most redeeming part of being a human myself. When I visited Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris during my visit in 2013. It was the first time Ive felt truly awe inspired. Was this religion? Have I been wrong? Was there actually a greater power? How many times Ive abused and belittled the word Awesome for such minuscule things. After reveling in the moment for a long while staring at how every brick was coddled together and hand made. It became transparently clear to me. This was not religion, yes it was built for religious intent and by followers of the faith, the awe inspiring thing was that humans made this. I am awe inspired by the human ability to create, change, and adapt. This brings me to something that has been disturbing me a great deal in the present months. Since humans created words, there meanings, the cars. Why do any of us have to endure stress about anything? We freaking created and continue to perpetuate stress. We created traffic, relationships, religion, politics, emotion, good and evil. Everything that any one person can stress about was created by us. The disturbing thing Im hung up on is the desire to perpetuate these seemingly negative stresses. Every person has their own views, Im not trying to push my view on you. But if this is true we are the ones that can learn to avoid or change anything stressful on an individual level given time and an open mind. We over complicate so many things. When Ive been stressed recently I find myself thinking at this level. Why do we continue to do this if it stresses an average human out. I think the most friendly example I have to share is traffic. Why cant people that stress about traffic take the bus? Work from home? Find a closer job? Have they tried alternatives? Do they know alternatives? Do alternatives exist? What can we do to change this? This broad view can sometimes help ease my stress by thinking this was human created. But other times I am consciously aware of perpetuating the stress myself with no way to stop it leaving me at a crossroads of lost and nervous. Which results in being very intimidated and a gravitas feeling of being greatly unprepared for the world we have created. I just thought this was interesting and that is the only reason I decided to share it.
