What are we, really. We identify with our body, our emotions, our thoughts, but if you look closely, we’re just a network of neurons interacting inside a brain. Everything we feel and think happens in there. We don’t even need the outside world to experience life. It’s all happening in our head. That’s why I believe we should be less sensitive to what happens around us or to what we think. We can learn to reinterpret it or, at the very least, stop giving it so much importance.

This doesn’t mean we should ignore everything, but we shouldn’t give it more weight than it deserves. When we’re sad, sometimes the best thing to do is just let it happen. That emotion will pass, and others will come. Then sadness will return, and it will pass again. That’s the cycle, until it all ends. I think humans have gotten a bit carried away trying to give life too much meaning, when maybe there isn’t one. And maybe that’s not a bad thing, maybe it’s freeing.
