Many of us often wonder if anything is real, or if anyone is real. Many people jump straight to the infamous quote by René Descartes , "I think, therefore I am", but here is no definitive reason for this initial thought to be true. This does seem real, but the true reality could be anything. From colors shapes and smells being altered, to this being a simulation from where we are but a spec of dust, to the recycling of life material for inmates of a alternate realm.
I believe this to be a true existence, but it is not as it appears. Not our only existance, but a single level of a Game of Learning. There may be no end to this game, only to lose a life and repeat the level, or level up. . .
On this level of Planet Earth, we desire what will not make us happy, while pure existence should make us happy, and helping others find that happiness should help to satisfy our craving for more. This is a material world formed on the idea that people will continue to crave more material items. We all do it! I have only met a few Americans in my lifetime who wear the same cloths for years on end. We accumulate stuff. Stuff which can not be used for long, have little use, won't be shared with others, and add little to our lives.
Will we become less self obsessed and begin to care about humanity as a whole as well as each person on an individual basis? Distractions are set before us to keep us away from learning or doing right by ourselves. Every day pop-culture and sports take our minds away from what we presume to be miserable lives. (Our lives are not truly miserable, yet being jealous of fake idealism make us desire more.) Governments keep our "pondering" to a minimum by putting everyone into boxes which presumably hate all other boxes.
We are eternal beings of consciousness. Let's try to remember to act like it. Everyone is just as important as you, yet you are just as important as everyone. The world will level up, but the best way for you to help this process is to level up yourself. I'm working on this, it is not easy, in fact it is hard. Time, commitment, desire, patience and pure love are just a few of the issues I get pulled down by, but everyday I try to either remind myself, or have someone else remind me that it is possible to overcome the issues of this world.
Freedom is something that we need to have!

Life is good, let us strive to be good also.
I have always been an artist. My understanding is that most people, if not everyone, produces artistic content fluidly throughout their days.
Whether or not that art is documented, complimented, seen, produced on purpose, posed for, manipulated, cheated stolen or just experienced; most things around you including you are art.
Entrepreneurship is an art form and I will now have voice where it is preferred. I have decided to spend my time working on art and for love not with less focus on working for money.
