LukeyoutheU is my attempt at making sense of life. an attempt at which I am doomed to fail. I am doomed to fail because life is, life encompasses far more, far far far more, than I or any one of us or any group of us or the brightest minds amongst us can fully discover, understand, or create. I will never be able to explain all of it. I am, however, destined to try. the best that I can do, that any one of us can do, is to try. I, like every one of us with a functioning brain, try to make sense of my life and life. what happens in it individually and what happens in it communally. we come, all of us, at least unconsciously, to working solutions. ways we unconsciously, subconsciously, and consciously tell ourselves, and believe, to keep going. to make it through. to wake up and step into the day. our answers, our solutions, are always temporary. they are further influenced, altered, adjusted, unconsciously, usually slightly, sometimes massively, according to our experiences; and, sometimes consciously, when we actively decide there are better ways of being and actions to take and take them.
that is a heck of a lot to put into an opening paragraph. some may not like that these paragraphs are mostly in lower case. others, not clear on what I am saying and not wanting to work at it. familiarists not pleased to be asked to read a wall of text. probably I have scared some people away. probably some have decided, based on this paragraph alone and without further investigation, that LukeyoutheU is not for them. having left, leaving, may, in fact be the better decision for them, at least at this time. for you. for you who remain, who are reading this now, who may, likely will, check out, poke around LukeyoutheU, I extend a warm welcome. you are continuing a process that you are most likely fully in the midst of: you are in the process of discovering and creating more of yourself, yourself who is part of this world, which is a tiny dot of the universe's expression of life. thank you for looking beyond the narrow and the reductionistic. LukeyoutheU, I think, can help. whether you think it can, you believe it might, it will, is up to you. two loaded paragraphs, things to think about. it gets harder and easier ahead. |
