Back to the simulation idea, if we are in a simulation, which makes sense. Everything we do is controlled, maybe not controlled but calculated.
For instance, I'm currently listening to The Social Network by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. Why did I choose this, it gets me in the mood, it makes me feel something, I'm controlled by it. Music is an extension of us. It like other inputs in life has a say in who we are. We feel it and need it, we are it. People create music to evoke a response, surely that's why the most powerful songs are love songs, the emotion we can't always quantify...
If we are in a simulation are we meant to understand everything? Surely not. Then the simulation would be over. We could surmise the end and then what would be the point.
If the universe we live in was created by a single explosion, then technically we are in a simulation, we are the effects of that bang. We are energy seekers and movers. We are a part in the cog turning to no end.
The point of life, there is no point. We exist and then we don't. I think that's fine. Should we expect more?
I mean, the definition of life is different to so many people. The western world is seeking status and a monk is seeking enlightenment. Who is right and who is wrong, it's in the eye of the beholder. Life is what we decide it to be or do we...
We are the sum of our pasts, we are the sum of our choices, we are the sum of the equation that is life.
Every step is adding to the formula we set out and was set out for us.
We are given the chance to exist and guided by those who have learned what "is best", or merely the sum of their learnings and opportunities.
I feel like my calling is to think and if this made you think then maybe that calling is correct. If you agree or disagree that calling is correct.
