  • Everything Is Useless (But Let That Liberate You)

    Now, let that liberate you. Free you to find joy, play, be engulfed in your passions, your hobbies, have fun, go on adventures, and do whatever your heart desires.

    Everything is useless. There is nothing to fix.

    Whether we live in a simulation or not. 

    All of existence happened by chance.

    There is no rhyme, reason or purpose to anything.

    Once you realize this, you will be liberated.

    You will feel the weight of the world melt off your shoulders.

    You can now reconnect with your childhood passions.

    You will begin to play again.

    Since all of life is simply a play, a game, a non sensical, purposeless, meaningless existence.

    You are born, you have experiences, collect memories and then you die.

    Nothing more, nothing less.

    There is no God, no after life, no nothing.

    This is it.

    Now, let that liberate you. Free you to find joy, play, be engulfed in your passions, your hobbies, have fun, go on adventures, and do whatever your heart desires.

    Because in the end everything is useless.

  • Lessons I Learned Losing Family & Friends

    Loss: the state or act of no longer having, keeping, or controlling something.

    Here’s who I lost:

    1. My two Grandmothers, 2 Grandfathers
    2. My older cousin brother – Babu Dai (alcohol overdoes)
    3. My older cousin sister – Phulhamu Didi (succumbed to her illnesses)
    4. My friend Rubiel Mercado. (no seatbelt and flew through his windshield)
    5. My friend Alexa (Autoimmune disease)
    6. Ismar “Mookie” (shot. He was not the target)
    7. My friend Woody (drowned running from the cops)

    I can go on.

    Here’s what losing my family and friends taught me:

    1. Death can happen to any of us at anytime
    2. There is no more important time than the present
    3. You better act now. Time is ticking.
    4. Your dreams will not magically happen. You must act relentlessly.
    5. There is no meaning to life, except the meaning you give it.
    6. There is no proof of spirits. They never came back to visit me.
    7. Life is meant to be lived. It’s an adventure. Enjoy, laugh and experience the full human experience.

    I love and miss my family and friends dearly.

    However, we will all be gone one day as well.

    Let us all live our lives as best we can, achieve our dreams and do exactly what our soul desires.
