A quotation from Shakespeare

PROSPERO: Our revels now are ended. These our actors,
   As I foretold you, were all spirits and
   Are melted into air, into thin air;
   And like the baseless fabric of this vision,
   The cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces,
   The solemn temples, the great globe itself,
   Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve,
   And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
   Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
   As dreams are made on, and our little life
   Is rounded with a sleep.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
Tempest, Act 4, sc. 1, l. 165ff (4.1.165-175) (1611)

It’s all connected, a web of fate binding all to all else. A wordless language of wyrd reflected and inscribed within nature itself. All that arises must ultimately wither and fall, and it is this shared destiny that speaks so eloquently of life’s inherent meaning.

Daily Microdose of Meaning

"Maybe the universe is just one long attempt to ask itself a question."

And maybe you’re the typo it didn’t expect but secretly needed to make it interesting.

Maybe the real horror isn’t death. It’s the chance that awareness continues, even after everything ends. No body. No time. Just presence, watching absence.

Imagine being a brilliant physicist/mathematician and still avoiding the most important problems because your career depends on publishing frequent papers, not solving the biggest mysteries in the world.

That's why you can't do things like this in academia.

The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed.

In the sands of time, an ancient city awakens, whispering tales of existence long forgotten. What secrets lie beneath the surface? As we unearth the past, do we not also unearth ourselves? #Archaeology #Existence
