"The dream is nothing,

Yet it drives us to the end"

When I feel sad, exhausted or drained I take my time to meditate whenever I can. Meditation can be performed in various different ways I believe. Some listen to music, others read a book, do yoga, sleep a little bit, talk to others or play games... I prefer listening to music in a dark room with my mind awake. And think about the existence of humanity and the world.

Thinking about the whole universe, galaxies and all the entities in space takes my mind away. Because they are real and in the outer world. Awaits us to reach them yet we don't know if we can make it or not. They are the only thing that the entire humanity cannot possibly and visibly make an impact even though they would all come together for that reason. They are untouchable and the funny thing is, we are made out of them.

Thinking about this, isolating me from all the problems I have in that day or in my life rather. Having a bad day? Yeah, sorry to hear that but tomorrow is there, you will reach an endpoint of this bad day anyway. A difficult exam is ahead? Well, you know you have to take this exam and whether you will pass it or not, it will be in the past. Nobody said that everything will be great all the time, but it will be in the past and you won't have anxiety about it anymore. You can go for the next one.

Because of the chain of anxiety moments we have, we try to find a way to get rid of them at least for some time and we disconnect from the real world one way or another. That is why I dream of the other worlds. And having a slight impact and meagre existence in the entire universe must be so funny for it too. Yet the fact is, this is what we have, this is our life. No need to make it more difficult than it could be. We should look for our inner serenity by not giving a damn to whatever negative happens in our life. Not easy, (and not saying that I am great at it, no) but necessary.

So think about humanity, the sky, the world, other planets, stars and be curious for more next time you take your own distant time from the others and the problems.

Whenever I hesitate, I look to the sky as I often do. I remember our small existence that can create great value.
