random sad rambling post :(

You know
if we all died tomorrow
wouldn't we have all wasted our lives
when we could have made it so much more?

Sometimes I think people euphemize life
because they want it to become what they always thought it was
and it would be sad to think they are all living dreary lives, after all nobody want to admit it
everybody wants a life like a movie, but only few people live like that
But in what life constitutes, and what we do in it,
life is a melodramatic, boring scene
we all get kicks from the little things that happen
the little specks of glitter on an otherwise grey canvas
and all because we choose to
or maybe thats just what life is
and all the movies and entertainment seem to glamorize a life that doesn't exist
and we all chase after a watermark

and its even more messed up because to everyone else
it makes total sense that you live the first half of your life preparing for your second one
even in the sense that some doctors spend 25 years to be a doctor
and even in the sense of religion
and if you don't, and just have fun then you get screwed over later
like a harvest

and whats more even more messed up
in a totally stripped down, realistic sense
is that when we die
we will all either head to heaven or hell
when we hit heaven, we will not have any sense of regret
because it doesn't exist
and i don't even know how I feel about that, whether its good or not
and truly, none of our education, the things we spend most of our time on matter
i would think that i should have my life a different way
but why do i live my life the way i do right now, when i know in the future, i will not regret anything i do?
and for those of you who will go to hell
because sadly, there are many of you, even oblivious or stubborn as you may be
you will spend the rest of eternity in regret
even if you did live a fun and fulfilling life

and for those of you atheist
why do you even live
any life at all
having hope in a tomorrow, and only a tomorrow
having no guilt in what you do because you don't have to face a greater power
in the end, you are truly nothing
you exist, then you don't exist
imagine the moment you die
that's right, you can't
because you don't exist anymore
it's just a flash

its kind of ironic
life and afterlife are inversely related in a sense of how we live it
how we should live is actually rigidly defined
and yet
nobody lives that way

but even when you compare atheism and Christianity
everything is in the head
everything is subjective
life is what you make it
as much as i don't want to say it or explain the philosophy behind religion
the idea of a God is essentially created in your mind
but its like
once you seize the imagination
you realize something greater
and you don't need any proof
life is not meant to be understood
it's better that way

lalala i wish i could coherently convey my thoughts :/

i like the atheist part

life is such a struggle because you constantly know that there is no point on this Earth (except to spread his word) but to reproduce and keep the human race going.

Like a suffocating fish on land. You know you're going to die and there's no point in trying, but you have to try anyways.
