Does anyone believe in this as a reason to keep going?
The classic fairytale of Pinocchio. A story of love, lies and trust. To become a real boy and be loved.
I mean is anyone even watching or even interested?
It's nothing new, heard it all before mate from a fella down the pub.
There can be only one hero in a story and let's be honest the buzz will fade soon enough.
So who then are we fighting for when someone says "hey man, you're already enough".
It's you. The one that's watching it all behind the lens of life and stuff. But what if the one who watching hasn't learnt how to trust?
Then who cares what the outcome is, when all that's left is dust.
The meaning is for us to care for us.
There is definitely a reason to keep going- because we don't remember but we choose to come here. Earth is a school, and dropping out just means we will choose to come back and try again- except we'll have an even more difficult life because it's the only way to build enough strength to stay. Some of us have lifetime after lifetime of giving up, and the first thing we do when we do is feel like we just failed the same class, again. I've had so many past-life memories and most of them were difficult. But, I've learned so much and gotten stronger in each one that I decided to stay and overcome my problems. The lives I quit have resulted in having worse karma to deal with (the hurt we cause ourselves and others by giving up) and it keeps me here, this time- because my life since being in the womb has been so totally horrific I can't imagine coming back and having a worse life to deal with. It can get to be a vicious cycle, until we break it. And, I'm breaking it this time. No matter how much it hurts. Buddha said "Life is suffering" but he also gave us ways to help. Helping others, caring about ourselves no matter how much we feel like we don't deserve it, I totally agree if only one thing that matters is what you said, "The meaning is for us to care for us." This isn't selfish at all. It's completely necessary if we are to survive. Not judging ourselves helps a lot. If you all only knew your past-lives and in-between life planning, which we are meant to forget BTW as to not "ruin" the lesson, you'd realize how strong and loved you are, even when you think you are alone. I just lost my best friend to illness and I know he's still with me- he fought being suicidal, too- a veteran with CPTSD, and I learned so much from him. His last words of wisdom to me and everyone he met was "Just do your best". That's all we really can do. He was a fighter, and so am I. And, so are all of you, if you are reading this. There's a lot more I can say, but keep going. Giving up just means you bring all your problems plus more into your next life, until you learn you are worth it, not giving up on yourself. No matter how hard things are. Believe me, you don't want to make it worse than you think it already is...
PS- I love watching videos of others who can remember their past lives or have NDEs (from suicide or anything). So much to learn from these people who have memories and experiences most people don't have. (If you are here, it's for a reason. And you get to discover this reason, if you keep going.) Like this one, recently:
