I'll tell you a riddle. You're waiting for a train, a train that will take you far away. You know where you hope this train will take you, but you don't know for sure. But it doesn't matter. How can it not matter to you where that train will take you?
I posted before about the concept of wandering into unfamiliar territory. I'm starting to feel that it's not a destination. It's not some place in which I will one day wake up.
It's a feeling.
It's pure existence.
Every moment in this reality is just as mysterious as a dream, and much more mysterious than any imagination.
I can't imagine you with all your complexity, all you perfection, all your imperfection. Look at you. You are just a shade of [the real]. You're the best I can do; but I'm sorry, you are just not good enough.
My imagination isn't good enough to compare with the mystery of the real.
It doesn't matter where the train will take me, because it's the ride that's important.
The train leads to the same destination for all of us
