Equality

We are always as close to the future as we can possibly be.

Constantly on the brink of the unknown.

Absolutely all of us share in that reality.

None of us know what's going to happen.

That makes us all equal.

Equal in our ignorance.

In our inability to be truly prepared. 

Comparable in our stupidity.

We all live in the dark.

Nobody knows.

But everybody grows. 

We are all snowballs in an ever proliferating avalanche of existence. 

One single entity.

Hurtling through the darkness towards the all knowledgeable light

At the speed of nothing. 

What if the light goes out before we get there?

What if it is merely an illusion?

Fabricated by our collective mind to shelter us from the truth. 

That we are the darkness. 

The light is a mirror.

When the avalanche subsides we become still.

At one again with the cosmos.

Maybe.
