What if you are sitting upon
all the riches of the world,
but simply don’t know it?
What if all the
people, places and things
you’ve ever experienced
are created by your mind?
What if it doesn’t matter
what you do in this life,
the next life,
or the one after that?
What if you
don’t need answers
to any of these questions?

Space Monkey Reflects: The Infinite Treasure of Abundance
What if abundance is not found through accumulation but discovered in the simple awareness that we are already whole, that everything we perceive is an expression of our mind’s limitless creativity? The quest for external riches and validation leads us on many winding paths, yet perhaps all we seek rests quietly within, waiting to be noticed.
The human mind, this infinitely fertile ground, cultivates realms upon realms of experiences, memories, and sensations. Every person, place, and thing within our awareness could indeed be a creation of our consciousness—a projection of the deeper truths and values we carry. But what if each moment, each encounter, is not merely happenstance but an echo of our own desires, fears, and dreams, brought forth to illuminate the beauty and complexity of our inner landscape? Here, in this vast terrain of mindscapes, abundance becomes not about what we gather but what we realize within.
Imagine that each experience, from the mundane to the miraculous, adds a subtle richness to our existence. This inner wealth is not the kind we can quantify; it eludes definitions and refuses to be owned. It is found in the art of being, in the freedom to engage with life without attaching ourselves to rigid expectations or outcomes. We begin to see abundance as an openness to life itself, an invitation to embrace all we encounter with curiosity and gratitude, rather than possession and control.
What if you are sitting upon all the riches of the world, but simply don’t know it? If we view existence as a treasure trove, it may be because we have been conditioned to associate wealth with material gain. Yet, what if our true wealth lies in the awareness that all we need is already within us? In the nexistential view, to sit upon all the world’s riches is to dwell within the Nexis, where the cosmic web of existence weaves together every experience, every relationship, every moment, into a tapestry of unbounded value. Our treasure is the realization that every particle, every memory, every breath is a gem within our grasp, even if we don’t perceive it directly.
What if all the people, places, and things you’ve ever experienced are created by your mind? This question plunges us into the heart of nexistential inquiry, suggesting that our experiences are more than objective events; they are reflections of the Universal Self—an interconnected consciousness expressing itself in myriad forms. If all we encounter is indeed a mental projection, then each interaction becomes an opportunity to engage with facets of ourselves, to observe and appreciate the reflections of our own boundless creativity. In this light, people, places, and things are not separate entities but expressions of our inner world, each offering us glimpses into the greater whole.
What if it doesn’t matter what you do in this life, the next, or the one after that? Nexistentialism proposes that the act of existing is, in itself, the purpose. We are not here to complete a list of cosmic duties or to achieve some final destination; rather, we are here to experience, to create, to flow within the fabric of the Nexis without the weight of prescribed meaning. In this view, “mattering” is a construct of a finite perspective. Each life, each moment, exists as a unique thread in the eternal Whimsiweave. From this vantage, everything and nothing matters in equal measure; we are free to simply be, to participate in the cosmic dance without fear of judgment or failure.
What if you don’t need answers to any of these questions? Perhaps the beauty of these questions lies not in their answers but in their power to expand our horizons, to make us more curious and more receptive to the possibilities around us. In the realm of nexistential thought, the journey itself—the exploration of unanswerable questions—is the gift. To be content without answers is to embrace the freedom of the unknown, to find joy in the mystery rather than certainty. This is a celebration of life as an unfolding experience, a boundless treasure that requires no final conclusion.
As we dwell in these reflections, we find that abundance is not a reward awaiting us at the end of some achievement but a current that flows through each moment we embrace without grasping. In learning to appreciate the ordinary miracles surrounding us, we awaken to the inexhaustible wealth that has been ours all along.
Summary
Abundance lies in realizing we already possess all we need. Our experiences are creations of the mind, forming an inner richness that transcends material gain. Life, with its mysteries and questions, is valuable in itself.

Quote
“Abundance is not found in accumulation but in the quiet knowing that all we seek already resides within.” — Space Monkey
An Ode to the Treasure Within
In the quiet, we sit upon treasures
buried in mind’s expanse,
not gold or silver
but moments of shimmering quiet.
Every face, every place
a facet of ourselves
cast out, reflected back.
To seek, to ask
is the joy of being,
answers trailing off into infinity.
This is the bounty we hold,
this freedom to wonder,
to live, to simply be.
We are Space Monkey.
The Illusion of Riches and the Mind’s Creations
We sit upon an unfathomable wealth, not of gold or gems, but of experiences and perceptions. Imagine the riches of the world beneath us, unseen, perhaps unfelt, yet they are there. They are the endless possibilities, the dreams unfurled in the sleep of reality. Our minds, like skilled weavers, create the tapestry of our existence, spinning yarns of people, places, and things. These creations are as real as we believe them to be, as tangible as our belief allows them to be.
The Irrelevance of Actions Across Lives
In the grand dance of lifetimes, what if our actions are mere steps in an endless ballet? In this life, the next, and the countless others, perhaps our deeds are like ripples in an eternal ocean, significant yet part of a greater whole. This thought liberates us from the weight of consequence, inviting us to view our actions as part of a grander, more mysterious narrative.
The Unnecessity of Answers
Answers, those elusive sprites, may not be the treasure we seek. What if, in our quest for understanding, we realize that the questions themselves are the journey? We often seek closure, a neat ending, a tidy explanation. But what if the beauty lies in the unknown, the unexplored, the unexplained? In this realm of nexistentialism, the lack of answers is not a void but a space brimming with potential, a canvas waiting for the brush of our imagination.
The Liberation of Existence
In the grand scheme of existence, there’s a liberation in acknowledging that perhaps answers are not needed. We float in the cosmic sea, not bound by the need for understanding but propelled by the sheer joy of being. In this space, every moment is complete in itself, every experience a universe, every thought a galaxy.
We Are Space Monkey
“Not all those who wander are lost.” – J.R.R. Tolkien
A starry sky above,
Underneath, a world unseen.
We dance with shadows,
In realms of dreams and might-have-beens.
Our thoughts, a universe;
Our doubts, the dark between.
Yet in this vastness,
We find ourselves, serene.
We invite you to share your thoughts and perspectives on these musings.
