An Unnecessary Necessity

I felt the urge to address this, despite the fact that it's only one of many Facebook memes and posts. So, I saw this post on Facebook and felt like I needed to speak my mind about it:

This was my response to it:

Live in the now, there's no past and future. According to human norms, I'm going to turn 19 years old next year, however, that doesn't mean anything to me more than it means for my consciousness. Age will always be age. I'm always growing, and heck this comment won't even matter to me as soon as I'm doing typing the words. It's all about the moment itself, and the experience that you 'experience'. Maybe, according to the human established, system, I could be labeled a 'failure' or maybe a so-called 'successful person' based on what I do according to their believed orthodox of a status-quo. However, If I keep holding onto them, then my progress as energy or 'being' itself will only deteriorate and I'll be dissatisfied with what I'm doing. As Terence McKenna once said: 

“We are told 'no', we're unimportant, we're peripheral. 'Get a degree, get a job, get a this, get a that.' And then you're a player, you don't want to even play in that game. You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that's being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.” 

People keep doing whatever they're told to do and end up being a robot that starts wondering if it's a robot or a freaking 'being'. Many fail to comprehend such and end up making a whole division of fabricated ideology based on a failed comprehension. Maynard James Keenan in his song Lateralus states: 

Overanalyzing and overthinking separates the mind from the body,
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I mustFeed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines

We're not perfect, but we're perfectly imperfect and we're only here to learn & experience (Referenced from Satsang). 

P.S. It doesn't matter what opinion you hold towards this, as duality needs to play its role in reality. I respect your opinion and don't wish to argue nor condescend it in any way, however, if I do, just keep in mind that you and I are perfectly imperfect, therefore there is no you and I , it is the universe experiencing itself over and over ( Alan Watts) ; it's all an experience and just live it.

Lastly, I need to cite this quote by Tesla: 

"It is paradoxical, yet true, to say, that the more we know, the more ignorant we become in the absolute sense, for it is only through enlightenment that we become conscious of our limitations. Precisely one of the most gratifying results of intellectual evolution is the continuous opening up of new and greater prospects."
