An idea requested by myself. I don't truly know why I felt the urge to write this, but please. Let me know your thoughts. Request anything for me to write in the comments if you'd like. I will reply to everyone as soon as I can. Take care of yourself.

When you die, what happens? 

Don't know? That's okay. To be honest, without faith, no one knows.


But here's my main question then.

Why are we here? If we die and disappear after death, what's the point? What matters? Nothing. 

Nothing at all. 



Since the beginning of time, there are people. These people have issues, as everyone does. Yet for some reason, some issues outshine others. Why is that? Why does this happen? Well, I'll tell you. Sometimes people can scream. Sometimes others cannot. So those who can scream what's wrong get more attention than those who can only whisper through the pain. There's nothing wrong with screaming. I find it helpful when the mind becomes too cloudy. But then there's something you should know.

Sometimes those who scream... aren't in pain. They aren't hurting. They are just annoyed or frustrated. Miffed, you could say. Angry. Put in a place of injustice in their eyes. 

So what happens to those who can only whisper? They are not heard. It isn't their fault; yelling and screaming takes a lot of courage and to muster it up is complicated. You have to have a clear head. Distinct words. A larger vocabulary so you sound smarter. Possibly, good clothes. No weird ticks or things others find sour about you. People have to be moved by your story. But not a lot. Don't make them cry. Don't make them cry.


What about us, then? Those who whisper? Some whisper louder than others, but in the end of it all, why do we whisper? 

We warn. Warning others of upcoming stress. How to handle things that no human should ever have to handle. Yet its a natural thing in life. Death. Hunger. Violence. If these are natural, shouldn't we cling to the things that are not so natural? Things in religion sometimes talk about violence as something of nature as well. Yet there are other religions, (religions being unnatural-) that whisper along with us. Warning us of pain and hardships. Things that have somehow become natural, and how to deal with them.

We whisper alongside The Book... Which book? You'll find out. But it is a book, nevertheless. Filled to the brim with warnings. And joy. And pain. And sadness, and happiness. All true things, a history if you will. And we whisper along with it. Trying to warn. How to react. How to accept. How to move on. How to become someone who can scream. How to find you own voice in the sea of the people. How.



My question for today is...
