What if every ideal you held sacred was revealed to be a fraud?  What if every theory you venerated, every premise you clung to, was revealed to be nothing but an empty lie?  Honestly, I don’t think it would change a thing.  We still live finite lives in a mostly unknowable existence.  I take that as:  we should live fully for the short time we’re here.  As far as the Deep Questions…who can say?  And don’t most approaches—once you strip away the ritual and pomp—imply that we should drink deeply of life and be kind to others?  Who cares what the ACTUAL reason behind that is, or if there’s some super holy person out there saying the same thing with “special” words?

 I’m just gonna do my best, enjoy what’s in front of me, and have fun with the craziness.
