No one is coming to save you...

You must be the change you wish to see

Opportunities will not come knocking at your door; you must create them

No one is coming to save you–you must learn to climb the mountain yourself

The only way is up–otherwise you’re stuck in the past

The world hasn’t ended just yet, so unfortunately, you have to clock in until you make something of yourself

Life is fucking hard–believe no one if they try to convince you otherwise

Fuck the algorithm, eventually the internet will shut down and then what will you do to promote yourself

Having a purpose means your path will be much lonelier, even if people surround you

Anger will arise–that depression you thought was over will eventually return like a boomerang

You will realize that your manic never really left, you just learned to mask it better for a few years

You’ll blame the reason you’ve felt so shitty on the moon and its cycles

Perhaps it’s a retrograde

And sure, that may add to some of the reasons as to why you are feeling the way you are feeling

You may even decide to fast to clear your mind

Or say fuck America and impulsively search up how to move to Thailand with only 5 dollars to your name

You may contemplate all the ways you could take your own life and make it not appear as suicide because the suicidal thoughts have come back stronger than ever

You will cry

And cry

A lot–because you don’t have the balls to actually kill yourself 

And so you will suffer through life

Burning sage and chanting Hindu mantras, hoping that a god will free you from all misery

You will learn about buddahood and realize suffering may never cease

And that too will make you cry

And want to die 

all at the same time

You will wonder, well, what is the purpose of my life if the rich only get richer by feeding off the poor, and the poor only get poorer by being enslaved to toxic capitalism by the rich

Your mind will feel confined inside a cage, trying to make sense of all that in which causes you to feel deranged

You will endure the lowest of lows and beg for a high

You will wonder just why you were even cast down here as one of God's strongest soldiers

You will recite the scripture over and over until your tongue grows sore

“Just the faith of a mustard seed…”

You may even cast a pentacle on the ground with flames to ignite its power

And still…

You will suffer

Wondering what it all means…

There will come a time when you don’t believe in a God

And well…it will be true

Or you may turn to another God than the one in which you’ve been conditioned to believe in and well..

That will also be truth for you

No matter what God you turn to–all of them will tell you

The only way is up.

There are no shortcuts.

You cannot go under it

You cannot go around it

You must go through.

You must create your own reality

For the reality you are in now is only a product of past thoughts, turned action, made real.

You will read all the manifestation books you can find and sit for hours listening to how to master the law of attraction

You will hear stories in which you’ve never witnessed that seem too good to be true 

You will repeat affirmation after affirmation until you annoy the hell out of your own self and eventually stop

You will do all the things

And feel that you’ve exhausted all of your options and reasonings on why you should even want to stay here on this god forsaken planet

You will wish life to be easier and somehow it will become harder

You will want to climb back down the mountain

But you will look down and be afraid of the fall just as much as the climb

And so you will linger for some time 

Stuck at a crossroads

Arms growing tired

Legs giving out

Some people fall from the mountain

Some take breaks and keep it moving

What you decide is ultimately up to you

For we were given the power of choice in this life….

So choose.
