— The Urge to Join a Murmuration —
-
// "to choose life—existence itself—before anything else. a conversation we need to have about the validity of simply being human. the way the System possesses the world, wearing its lies like some kind of religion. most even attach their identity to it, that if the influence of the System disappears, they lose themselves, their ability to think beyond it, even their ability to dream outside of it. existence over everything becomes a foreign concept. why can't we just 'be', and just walk humanly? why can't we just experience existing? a murmuration of starlings do not worry how they'll eat, because Creation takes care of them. nature is theirs. just existing, living, and being. so natural, elegant, spiritual, miracle-filled experience. no dramatic agenda telling us to either compete or disappear. striving for excellence is beautiful, but its modern glorification has a dark secret, rooted in injustice. the System found a way to trick us into believing whatever it wants us to believe. maybe the great exodus of our time is to exit a corrupted form of productivity, how the System is just telling us what to do. how about: i am alive because i am alive, just as Creation is alive. this is the urge to be a part of a murmuration in the sky." //
