LIFE

Today I have pondering life and it’s meaning..it’s purpose
Are we really placed on this earth to work all day everyday and have a mere 5 hours to ourselves.
I don't really understand the western society
I think of third world countries, they are envious of our dollars
yet we live such miserable lives
chained and confined to office cubicles
too tired to enjoy the money
we spend 60 years saving to have a wonderful retirement,
then we spend 20 years enjoying that retirement
how does that make sense?
Then we die,

we spend our lives protecting ourselves from humans hurting us
sealing our souls away, locking up our hearts, living in isolation for the fear that others may hurt us
yet we don't realise we have shut ourselves off from life
we have numbed ourselves to life because of our fear of
pain is part of life - part of reality
but instead we are living already dead, lifeless
Humans they go out and hurt others to elevate themselves
to make ourselves feel better
And in that we mess up someone else's life entirely
someone who trusted you, loved you
what benefit is there in a temporary high for us that will destroy someone else?
Where is the joy in that?
