i have no map...

....for where i am going


That is not to say that there exists no such map, merely that i am yet to find it. Many have asked me to create said map so that future generations need not travel blind, but i see little glory in being a sacrificial lamb.

The Dirk Gently novels. The movie I <3 Huckabees. The book Icelander by Dustin Long. All feature existential detectives. All touch on the universal plight of us mere humans attempting to detect a meaning in the noise, a purpose for existance.

But Little Birdy scream "Existance is purpose!". Garth says to Wayne "Live in the now, man!". So we give up our quest and settle for red wine and fine cheese, and savour the instant. Why battle for change, when the result is trading one imprisionment for another?

Maybe one day we can all be comfortable, but i doubt it.
