Work and Dreams

All this, and what for?

So many have asked that question.

What...is the use of writing? Or creating? Or simply...purely...dreaming? Or just wishing for things to be? What use is it?

In our world? In our time? None I would say. Unless you're a writer.

And even then, you got to get lucky. You got to dream the dream that everyone dreams, and make everyone else think their dream is your dream. You got the market, advetise, make your creations worth it to the world.

Worth it. Ha ha ha.

Science is worth it. We got gadgets! Politics is worth it. We have countries! Sports are worth it. We have medals!

And in the end, what are all these for? Why do we research to make our lives more comfortable, debate to make our policies more ethical, compete to make our countries more glorious?

Is it not all the for the dream?

We build, we theorise - we construct. All this extra stuff, all of it - for what? For something more? For something greater? People want peace...why do they want that for? For stability? For safety? What do they want the safety to do?

I don't think I need to repeat myself anymore.

Everything begins with a dream. And everything shall end with one too.

So keep dreaming people. Its the only thing that makes life worth living.

And death worth dying for.
