Out of Bounds
The ice wall.
Whether the Earth is flat, spherical or just an illusion1 is of litte consequence. It's like taking a peek behind the curtain in the Wizard of Oz. It's all smoke and mirrors. All you need do is select your choice in the matter and then live out a life accordingly2.
Sometimes we think that we are out of our depth. Sometimes we think that there is more to life than just the living of it. It's all true of course, it's all a matter of appealing to our own wishes and desires.
If you want a way out, there it is. If you want to pretend that nothing else exists outside of the here and now, so be it. The genie3 provides.
Time doesn't stand still and neither do we in our search and quest for something 'out there'. Being caught up in it all becomes the justification. But there is more. There always is4.
In trying to grasp that which easily flows out of the hands we become forever enmeshed in running after it. The desire to contain it all is strong as are we.
There is no escape and there is no existence without you.
Do what you will with it. You already are but don't let me stop you from pretending otherwise. I am not here to pierce your veil of 'ignorance'. I prefer to let you enjoy that which you have created for yourself. Besides, there is no point in pointing out what you already know so have at it. Become and be what you wish for yourself. My only question is:
And then what?
