We are all human beings. We aren't chosen, we aren't special in any way. This religion which claims that we are worthy of such a god, it's a story which your people initially agreed to tell themselves over and over for the good of the world at the time. It's been told so many times that your people have forgotten that it was a lie. We are merely part of the chaos which we call the universe. A species within a genus within a family within a order within a class within a phylum within a kingdom within a domain and ultimately within the constraints of life. A rational and sensational being within an observably rational system. From a rational point of view, all we can aspire to be is part of this system. What everyone truly wants is to get ahead of the system, to be different, to be unique, to have a purpose. Ultimately what we truly want is to understand. In this life all we can do is observe and work within these constraints. Nothing more, we will never truly understand what this life means or what anything truly means. The sad truth is that we can only understand what we can see in the way which we can see it. So what truly drives a man is within the constraints of all these variables presented. A human being desires fulfillment, meaning and completion. Being human isn't about being rash and irrational. It isn't about bending the knee and submitting to a system which is completely irrational. It is about acknowledging these constraints and using them to our advantages. The goal of humanity is to use our senses to reach fulfillment, meaning and completion. Reaching fulfillment, meaning and completion are all based on what you have in front of you. However, all these purposes constantly change and move in a different direction for every human being. That's the miracle of life, not the single blinding light which you call god. The past shouldn't be disregarded, but merely a part of the journey of the present. Dream of the future and never the past. The past will get you nowhere. However, being human isn't merely about moving, it’s about how hard you can get hit, get up and keep moving. There is no shame in admitting you have fallen. Some people fall, never get back up and in the process drag everyone down with them. Don't be that guy. Be the guy who picks himself up and openly acknowledges his fall.
