Why Having No Purpose Or Meaning In Life Isn't So Bad.

Again, I come forth with a very controversial topic because I, myself have been living through such a time or phase myself. Nihilism may not be appreciated or understood by everyone, but it can be categorised to be on the same edge as Zen Buddhism. Maybe not fully, but it has some correlations.

None of them require as much eloquence as they do with the mind. That's their primary focus, and that's where it all begins and concludes.

Often mistaken by Hitler's deeds, the ideologies over time has been secluded as a stereotype, passed down to the western society of scapegoats. It may just be a lesson for every person that a philosopher's sayings can't ever carry the burden of the comprehension of another perceiver, for it's up to the perceiver and their comprehension that leads their senses to a whole new road of their own ideology. Not everyone's alike, but correlatively we all are interconnected in our intellect and emotions.

From my own perspective, I think nihilism itself isn't really about to stop caring about the joy or beauty of life and the cosmos, but more so to not take anything seriously at all. That's just about it.

Don't Label.
Don't Divide. 
Don't Take Anything Seriously. 
Let It Be. 
Know That There Is No Truth. 
There's Only Our Hallucinations Of What We Sense Life To Be.
But, Just Enjoy The Ride ;) ! (Bill Hicks :D) 

(Okay, watch this TED Talk regarding Neuroscience, specifically about how our brain hallucinates.) 

It's kind of like how we just die for a while, but then we wake up from the dream we were dreaming, and now suddenly we just come to know that it was just a funny ride. A funny ride consisting of suffering, joy, agony, sorrow and all other kinds of emotions. You just start to think about the origin of your curiosity and the whole epistemological purpose behind, but then you blink your eye, look in the mirror and just wander off again being yet another person in your imagination trying to perfect out a certain scenario.
But, now you know that you don't have to be lost in that anymore, you have the freedom to let go of all the pain and curiosity itself. You don't even have to be obliged to find meaning within the observed world, because you already have found the peace you've become aware of. Thus, this transition to 'no-thingness' breaks the barrier and brings out our awareness in the wilderness.

It's funny how Soren Kierkegaard says:

"Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced."


Because, most of our lives we do dwell in curiosity and thought way too much, and honestly, I think that's okay, but also a bit foolish for us. On one end, we think too much and intoxicate our mind and on the other hand, we're constantly keeping a game of faith, belief and survival constructed within our lifestyle, instead of just enjoying the experience, and being engage with the play that is the dance of the cosmos. 
We're too busy learning a broad variation of newly discovered anomalies(actually, this one of the main exceptions), too busy finding a job, too busy trying to take sides within our world, too busy showing any sort of empathy, too busy to value the imagination of a moment, just too busy taking everything way too seriously, and voila! We have depression and anxiety, and now we're chasing after a cure, so that we can continue being busy again, but not thinking about the root cause of it. The biggest issue in a civilisation will always be an authority who fails to interpret, but succeeds in dictating facts that blatantly possess subjective opinion and meaning.
And Like Friedrich Nietzsche said:

"There are no facts, only interpretations." 

Good day !

P.S. I'd just like for all of you to know that all of this solely for the purpose of education and entertainment, and all the words engraved into this post are subject to interpretation, and doesn't have to stand its meaning in absolution.
