F**k it! Create anyway!

Creation is the meaning of life.

What’s the point of creating when no-one seems to care about your creations? (No-matter how valuable and important they seem to you).

In a world where the value we bring to the society is reflected through others, it feels rather delusional to create for the sake of creation or self-expression alone. It literally feels dangerous.

How much effort does it demand to be accepted and seen for who you are without you needing to prove your ‘worth’? How much does this ‘YOU’ worth, anyway? Is there a number?

While the soul finds expression through creation, the body feels unsafe when this creation is not accompanied by ‘results’ of acceptance, recognition and financial gain in the ‘real’ world. You’d expect that civilization and living in communities would have tackled the aspect of survival and that life (at least in civilized societies) would be primarily focused around creation and expansion. Sadly, this cannot be further from the truth.

But, isn’t ‘creation’ what actually life is? At which point in time did we (as a social species) miss the actual meaning of life?; I wonder.

In the societies we currently live in, everything and everyone has a price. This has been accepted as a fixated, undeniable and permanent truth.

Even more concerning is the realization that this externally defined price of our value influences and shapes directly our own (inner) sense of worth. Essentially, we build our self-image on external standards, beliefs and validation. And that in turn defines our life experience (i.e., reality). You see, what we call reality is always a direct reflection of our mental narratives and most of them are, unfortunately, subconscious. The result is that even our creations are driven by external demands rather than genuine interest and expression of our own life force. So most of us recreate the same old things in specific outdated ways.

There is only one way out of this reality maze: F**k the norms and others expectations! Be(come) delusional and create anyway, in your own unique way! Simply for the sake of creation and self-expression!

Even when your creations are not ‘good enough’ or ‘valuable’ for others, they are always good enough for life itself.
