Reminds me of two quotes I love
“Life and love are life and love, a bunch of violets is a bunch of violets, and to drag in the idea of point is to ruin everything. Live and let live, love and let love, flower and fade, and follow the natural curve, which flows on, pointless.”
D.H Lawrence
At the Side of the everlasting why,there is a yes and a yes and a yes.
But I don't like your ideas.

There is nothing for us to do on earth. Nothing. We are simply an advanced expression of nature.
The only thing we need is food to keep our bodies going but apart from that, no spiritual development
is needed, no compassion, journey or obstacles are necessary.
We just simply are."
As far as i know this is a Chinese philosophy (?) which describes nature as an organism that
simply develops for no particular reason, it just is. As i said, if you see flaws in this thinking please
share, likewise if you would like to elaborate on this topic that you resonate with, please also participate.
SN,
Josh

You know how Yoda said, "try not, do or do not, there is no try"... that basically sums it up for me.
