“What we see as death, empty space,
or nothingness is only the trough between the crests
of this endlessly waving ocean. It is all part of the illusion
that there should seem to be something to be gained in the future,
and that there is an urgent necessity to go on and on until we get it.
Yet just as there is no time but the present,
and no one except the all-and-everything,
there is never anything to be gained—
though the zest of the game is to pretend that there is.”
— Alan Watts

“The meaning of life is just to be alive.
It is so plain and so obvious and so simple.
And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic
as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.”

“Morning Meditation” In Black & White — Image by kenne
By trying to understand everything
in terms of memory,
the past, and words
we have, as it were,
had our noses in the guidebook
for more of our lives,
and have never look at the view.
— Alan W. Watts
