Objective emptiness



1. Oranges are round and orange.
2. The sea is flat and endless.
3. I feel light and lonely.

4. Once upon a time the universe was born- 13.8 billion years ago.
5. Intelligent life would appear in the universe sooner or later- according to the anthropic principle.
6. But it seems that there is no ultimate purpose or inherent cause- anywhere in the universe and despite human logic.

7. If we had never seen an orange, we wouldn’t know it exists.
8. If we hadn’t tasted an orange, we wouldn’t know what it tastes like.
9. If we hadn’t been born, we wouldn’t know the difference.

10. Life is a miracle unique and irreproducible.
11. This aspect of irreproducibility makes life impossible to science- according to which any phenomenon has to be reproducible to be real.
12. But while the origins of everything seem to be forever unapproachable, the story of our personal life repeats itself and goes on and on- listen to the repeating sound of the sea waves.

13. There is a distant ship gliding on the horizon.
14. Is there any meaning to our hope?
15. Or is hope just another unprovable and inexplicable property of our poor soul?

16. Once upon a time a human being was born on the shore of the endless ocean.
17. There is always a ship receding on the horizon- just like galaxies do.
18. One day the waves will carry us away…

19. Do oranges exist for those who don’t like them?
20. Does the sea exist without anyone watching it?
21. Do I need anyone to care about me so that I feel alive?

22. I am still alive, sitting alone by the sea, which is the endlessness.
23. Infinity is real either I am dead or alive.
24. I am still alive feeling my own emptiness.

25. The galaxies recede- the galaxies are purple…
