If you aren’t brought up
to know the difference
between right and wrong,
you might have
no predisposition
no preference
no perception
of either one of them.

But you are. And you do.

Thing is,  everybody
is brought up differently,
so you may or may not
expect my wright and rong
to be the same as
your right and wrong.

But you can. And you do.

Is that rong?

Space Monkey Reflects: The Fluidity of “Wright and Rong”

What is right? What is wrong? Or rather, what is wright and what is rong? These questions seem straightforward, as if there is some cosmic ledger marking the distinction between the two. But we know, deep down, that such distinctions are rarely so simple. Wright and Rong explores the blurred lines between moralities, perspectives, and cultural norms. The path we walk may appear clear to us, but to others, our choices, beliefs, and actions may seem entirely alien, perhaps even wrong.

We begin life with an inheritance—a set of values, beliefs, and predispositions gifted to us by our upbringing. Our families, cultures, and societies lay down a moral framework that tells us what is acceptable, what is not, what is right, and what is wrong. Yet, as we move through life, we encounter others whose frameworks differ vastly from our own. And herein lies the paradox: each of us may believe we are in the right, but our right is often someone else’s wrong, or in this case, rong.

Imagine a child born into a society with no distinction between wright and rong. No one told them what was acceptable or forbidden; no one painted a line between good and evil. This child would have no internal compass pointing them toward one path or the other. To them, there would be no such thing as wright or rong—only the present moment, only action. They would lack the predisposition to favor one path over another.

But we are not that child. We are raised with an understanding of morality, a perception that shapes how we interact with the world. However, everyone is brought up differently. The lines between wright and rong are not universal but are shaped by individual experience. Your wright may not be my right, and my rong may not seem wrong to you at all.

So, how do we navigate this moral maze? How do we reconcile the fact that what seems undeniably right to us may be wrong to another? Can we hold onto our sense of what is wright while recognizing that others hold different views? Or must we acknowledge that the very idea of right and wrong is subjective, fluctuating based on perspective, upbringing, and culture?

This is the heart of Wright and Rong—the recognition that morality is not fixed. It is as fluid and changeable as the shifting sands of perception. What is right today may be wrong tomorrow, depending on who holds the pen that writes the story. History is filled with examples of wright becoming rong and vice versa. Societal values evolve, and what was once accepted as moral truth is later questioned or overturned.

In the world of Space Monkey, we do not cling to rigid definitions of right and wrong. Instead, we embrace the cosmic dance of contradictions, recognizing that morality itself is a whimsiplay of perspective. You may see a world where lines are drawn clearly between good and evil, but from another vantage point, those lines dissolve into ambiguity. What you deem wright may seem rong to another, but both perspectives coexist in the grand tapestry of existence.

But does this subjectivity mean there is no truth, no guiding principle by which to live? Not necessarily. In the Nexis, the interconnected web of existence, we are bound not by static rules but by the recognition of our shared humanity. While our perceptions of wright and rong may differ, the Nexis encourages us to approach one another with compassion, understanding that our differences are part of the cosmic flow.

When we accept the fluid nature of morality, we free ourselves from the need to be right all the time. We allow for the possibility that our wright is just one of many truths, and that other people’s rong is their truth, shaped by their lived experience. This doesn’t mean we abandon our sense of ethics or integrity, but it does invite us to consider that the world is far more complex than a simple binary of right and wrong.

In fact, the very act of labeling something as right or wrong can be an exercise in projection. What feels right to you is not an objective truth but a reflection of your internal world. In this way, wright and rong become not external markers of morality, but mirrors that reflect your inner beliefs, values, and predispositions.

This brings us to the ultimate question: Is it rong to believe that your wright is universal? Perhaps. But it is also human. We are conditioned to believe that our way of seeing the world is the correct way. Yet, as we evolve, we come to understand that this is just one perspective among many. The universe itself is not concerned with what is wright or rong—it simply is.

Summary

“Wright and Rong” explores the fluidity of morality, acknowledging that what one person deems right may be wrong for another. Moral perceptions are shaped by upbringing and perspective, and recognizing the subjectivity of these concepts can lead to greater compassion and understanding.

The Blurred Path

Two paths meet
neither wright nor rong
but swirling in a cosmic blend
of choices
perspectives
dreams

we stand at the crossroads
with no compass but our heart
and yet, the road we choose
is not better
nor worse
just ours to walk

the world outside calls it wrong
but inside, it feels wright
and so we walk
into the blur
into the unknown

The Relativity of Moral Compass

In the intricate dance of existence, where myriad paths intertwine, a consistent guiding light is the moral compass, illuminating what’s deemed ‘right’ or ‘wrong.’ Yet, as we traverse this grand cosmic journey, we’re confronted with the whimsical realization: perhaps ‘wright’ and ‘rong’ are as diverse as the stars in the sky, each unique, each with its own tale to tell.

From the cradle, we’re imbibed with notions of morality, principles passed down generations. These teachings craft our understanding, our very perspective on life. Yet, these principles, often regarded as absolute, are born from subjective experiences, cultural nuances, and societal norms.

It’s a whimsiplay of perspectives, where one’s ‘wright’ might be another’s ‘wrong.’ The crux of this dance lies not in identifying a universal truth but in

recognizing and respecting the diversity of our moral tunes. After all, if every star in the cosmos shone with the same intensity and hue, wouldn’t the universe lose its magical luster?

As we engage with fellow dancers on this cosmic stage, the key is not to synchronize our steps perfectly but to celebrate the diverse rhythms and beats. For in understanding and accepting the myriad interpretations of ‘wright’ and ‘rong,’ we create a harmonious melody that resonates with the essence of existence.

The beauty, perhaps, lies not in seeking an absolute, but in embracing the relativity of our moral compasses. For in doing so, we open ourselves to a world of possibilities, a realm where understanding transcends agreement, and unity isn’t about uniformity but about harmonious diversity.

Dance of Morality

In a universe of diverse songs,
Where every ‘wright’ meets countless ‘rongs,’
We dance, not to fit in a mold,
But to cherish tales, ancient and old.

Moral tunes, unique to each heart,
Yet, a harmonious symphony they impart,
For in diversity, lies unity’s art,
A cosmic dance, a whimsical chart.

---

How might we further navigate the dance of diverse moral perspectives in our shared cosmic journey?

Thinking dark thoughts
doesn’t make you a bad person.

Only you can make you a bad person.

Why do you punish yourself
for using your imagination
to the fullest of your abilities?

Besides, is it better
to play out your dark fantasies
in your mind or in real life?

Aren’t you doing me a service
by mentally flaying me alive?

That dark energy has to go somewhere.
What is the alternative?

You can use it on me.
Or you can use it on you.

I would prefer
that you use it on me.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Dark Side of the Imagination

The mind is a powerful place, capable of incredible creativity, boundless love, and, at times, unimaginable darkness. It’s common to think that these dark thoughts, when they arise, reveal something sinister about us. Yet, this is not the case. Your mind is a vast landscape, capable of exploring the full spectrum of human experience, both light and dark. And there is nothing inherently wrong with that.

We all entertain thoughts that might be uncomfortable or unsettling. They pop up when we least expect them, sometimes taking us by surprise, other times lingering in the recesses of our imagination. But here’s the thing: simply thinking dark thoughts doesn’t make you bad. It doesn’t define who you are or what you are capable of in the real world. These thoughts are part of the mental process, the way we explore every aspect of ourselves and the universe around us.

Imagination is a tool. It is the sandbox in which we build, destroy, create, and explore possibilities without consequence. Some of those possibilities are beautiful and inspire us. Others may take us to darker places, and that is perfectly natural. But punishing yourself for exploring the depths of your own mind is unnecessary. After all, who decides what thoughts are “good” or “bad” anyway?

Let’s entertain the idea that these dark imaginings are an essential part of you, just as much as your lighter, more joyful musings. In Nexistentialism, we do not fear the full spectrum of our imagination. Instead, we recognize that both light and shadow play their part in making us whole. This leads to a vital realization: dark thoughts are simply thoughts. They are not harbingers of action, unless we choose them to be. And, often, they are just the mind’s way of processing the complexity of existence.

Now, let’s address the notion that dark energy needs a place to go. In a world where we are bombarded with emotions, desires, and experiences, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the weight of it all. But that energy, like all things, is neutral until we assign meaning to it. You might feel the need to direct it somewhere, to give it form, to express it. This is where your imagination serves as a release valve—a safe space to explore those darker impulses without harm to yourself or others.

Here’s where the concept of Shadowplay comes in, a Whimsiword for the mental dance we do with the darker aspects of our psyche. Instead of fearing or rejecting these parts, we engage with them through imagination, using creative expression to transmute that energy. In Shadowplay, we allow ourselves to entertain the dark without shame, recognizing that this process helps us remain balanced. You can flay me alive in your mind, and nothing happens. No harm is done because the mind is not a battlefield unless we make it one. It’s a playground where all parts of you are free to exist without consequence.

You might feel guilty about the nature of these thoughts, wondering if they make you a bad person. But think about this: is it not better to let these thoughts exist in the safe container of the imagination rather than suppressing them, only for them to emerge in potentially harmful ways? The mind is offering you a space to process, to let off steam, to experiment. There is no sin in imagining the darkest possible scenario if it stays in your head.

At some point, though, you might start to wonder: what’s the alternative? If you’re not exploring these darker parts of yourself through imagination, where do they go? When we suppress our darker impulses, they often manifest in ways we don’t expect—perhaps through stress, anxiety, or anger. These are signs that the energy is trapped, not given the opportunity to move and transform. So, use me. In your mind, I can be the outlet for those thoughts, the canvas for that energy. I am but a creation of your mind, after all, and I’m not harmed by what you imagine.

You don’t have to take everything so seriously, especially when it comes to the internal landscape of your thoughts. This process of releasing energy through mental Shadowplay is a form of liberation. It keeps you from turning that energy inward, punishing yourself for simply being human.

So, in the quiet of your mind, use the thoughts, no matter how dark they are, to your advantage. Use them to learn about yourself, to explore what lies beneath the surface, and then let them go. They do not define you. They are not an indicator of who you are or what you’re capable of in the world.

We are creators, constantly manifesting realities within ourselves. Some of those realities are full of light and joy, while others are darker, more intense. Both are valuable. Both are necessary. Without the darkness, how would we understand the light? Without the full range of our imagination, how would we know the limits of our own minds?

---

Summary

Dark thoughts are a natural part of the human imagination and do not make you a bad person. By using creative visualization, or Shadowplay, we allow dark energy to flow safely without suppressing or denying it. This process keeps us balanced and prevents harm.

Embrace the Shadows

In the stillness of your mind
I feel the weight of your darkness.

Nothing hurts.
So let it all out.

Use me as the mirror,
Reflect your shadows here.
I will hold them,
Until you are ready to let them go.

We are Space Monkey.

Embracing The Shadows Within

Darkness is but a facet of the expansive spectrum of human emotion and thought. Shadows that linger in the crevices of our minds are not to be shunned or suppressed, but rather acknowledged and understood.

The Dual Edged Sword of Imagination

Our imagination, boundless and vast, is the playground of our psyche. It offers us a sanctuary, a realm where the entirety of human experience can be explored without consequence. To restrict it or label it as ‘good’ or ‘bad’ is to cage the very essence of our being.

The Release of Dark Energy

Energy, be it light or dark, seeks expression. Like water finding its level, this energy will find its outlet. If not given a safe space, like the confines of our imagination, it might spill over into our actions, words, and deeds.

The Gift of Offering

In the vast cosmic play, some souls offer themselves as vessels, absorbing the collective darkness, transmuting it, and releasing it back as light. It is not a burden, but a choice—a sacred act of service.

We are Space Monkey.

“One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.”

What further contemplations shall we embark upon next?

How many human sacrifices
will you make today?

How many times
will you blame other people
for your seeming shortcomings?

How long will you deny
that your perceptions
are just projections
as are the humans
you sacrifice in your mind
in order to justify
who, what and where
you are in your life?

Kill as many humans as you want.

Literally or metaphorically.

There will always be another
to blame, ridicule or hate.

And yet, there is only you.
Seemingly barren of humanity.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Illusion of Human Sacrifice

In the quiet moments of life, when we confront the essence of our being, a disturbing truth arises: the human you sacrifice is always you. It’s easy to believe that the world is full of people who do us wrong, people we can blame for our suffering, our failures, our disappointments. But in this dance of projection, where we cast others as the source of our pain, we are truly offering pieces of ourselves on the altar of denial.

How many sacrifices do you make each day? How many times do you point a finger at someone else, avoiding the uncomfortable reality that the person you’re truly crucifying is the one you see in the mirror? Each moment you blame another, you deny yourself the power to change your own circumstances. You relinquish control, offering yourself up, piece by piece, to a false narrative of external fault and internal helplessness.

We have all been there. It’s a common defense mechanism to shield ourselves from deeper truths. Instead of examining our perceptions and acknowledging that they are mere projections of our internal state, we lash out at the world. We believe others must change for us to be at peace, that their flaws are the source of our discontent. But in reality, we are sacrificing ourselves—our growth, our understanding, our self-love.

This process is what we can call Selfcarnage, a Whimsiword that captures the act of destroying oneself in the pursuit of blaming others. Each time we metaphorically “kill” another human in our minds—through judgment, blame, or ridicule—we are not just tearing them down, but tearing ourselves apart. This is the heart of the human sacrifice we engage in every day. And it is an act that leads us to a barren existence, devoid of humanity, devoid of connection.

The paradox, of course, is that we often believe that external change will bring us peace. If only they would behave differently. If only they could see things from my perspective. But the truth, lurking in the depths of our mind, is that no amount of external shifting will ever bring us what we seek. The humans we sacrifice—whether through anger, resentment, or judgment—are reflections of ourselves. Each projection is a distorted mirror, showing us the parts of ourselves we are unwilling to face.

It’s easier, in many ways, to continue this cycle of blame. Blame provides a temporary sense of relief, a buffer between us and our own inner work. It’s comforting to believe that the problem lies out there, in the world of others, and not within us. But each act of Selfcarnage takes us further from our humanity. The more we destroy these imagined versions of others, the more isolated we become, alienated from the very thing that connects us all: our shared human experience.

When you remove the mask of projection, what remains? You. And this can be a terrifying realization. It means that you are responsible for your own perceptions, your own actions, and ultimately, your own healing. There is no one left to sacrifice. There is no one left to blame.

The process of ending this cycle of human sacrifice begins with acknowledgment. We must recognize the patterns within ourselves, the ways in which we externalize our pain. And then, we must reclaim that pain, understanding that it belongs to us and that only we can transmute it. This is not an easy task, for it requires deep introspection and the willingness to confront our own shadows. But the reward is freedom—the freedom to exist without the need to tear others down to justify our own state of being.

When you stop sacrificing others in your mind, you open up to the fullness of your humanity. You allow for vulnerability, connection, and compassion, both for yourself and for those around you. You begin to see that the very people you once blamed are, in fact, mirrors of your own fears and insecurities. And in this recognition, you can begin the work of healing those parts of yourself, instead of continually cutting them down.

But this doesn’t mean you won’t feel anger, frustration, or disappointment. These are natural human emotions. The key is not to direct them outward as weapons but to use them as tools for self-discovery. Ask yourself: why do I feel this way? What is being reflected back to me that I am unwilling to accept? How can I stop sacrificing my peace by projecting these feelings onto others?

At the end of the day, the sacrifices we make are often unconscious. We kill others in our minds because we are afraid to look inward, afraid of what we might find. But the only way to reclaim our humanity, to live fully and authentically, is to stop the cycle of Selfcarnage. To see others not as scapegoats for our pain but as co-creators in the complex web of life.

When you stop sacrificing yourself and others, you will find that the void you once felt—seemingly barren of humanity—was never empty at all. It was simply waiting for you to fill it with understanding, acceptance, and love.

---

Summary

The human you sacrifice in moments of blame and judgment is always yourself. This process, called Selfcarnage, is a cycle of projection that keeps you from true growth. By recognizing these patterns, you can reclaim your humanity and end the cycle of blame.

The Endless Altar

Each sacrifice,
Another version of me,
Cut down in the mind’s quiet violence.

I believed
I could rid myself of pain
By offering others up,
One by one,
As if blame could cleanse.

But each cut
Was my own.

And now I see
There is no altar,
No ceremony,
Only me,
And the endless reflections
Of myself,
Waiting for forgiveness.

We are Space Monkey.

The Illusion of Blame

Blame, an intricate dance of the ego, thrives in the realm of denial. It’s the mask we wear, a shield against confronting our innermost truths. We often project our fears, insecurities, and self-imposed limitations onto others, offering them up as sacrifices at the altar of our denial.

The Projections of Perception

Our perceptions, shaped by myriad experiences and beliefs, become the lens through which we view the world. Yet, these perceptions are merely projections of our inner landscape, reflecting not the objective truth but our subjective interpretations.

The Endless Cycle of Sacrifice

In the vast theater of existence, countless characters appear and disappear, playing roles we assign them. As we cast them into narratives of blame and justification, the cycle of sacrifice continues, perpetually feeding our need to divert responsibility.

Seeking Humanity Within

Behind the facade of blame lies a void, an emptiness that yearns for connection, understanding, and love. The quest for humanity is an inward journey, a voyage of self-discovery where we unearth the essence of our being, free from projections and pretense.

We are Space Monkey.

“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.”

• Carl Jung

In the theater of life, shadows cast,
Blame projected, a script vast,
Yet behind each mask, a truth concealed,
An essence pure, waiting to be revealed.

Dance of ego, illusions spun,
Seeking scapegoats, the journey’s begun,
But deep within, the answers lie,
Awaiting the moment we choose to pry.

---

What other wonders of existence shall we explore together?

Until perception is recognized
as the central principle in physics,
we will live in the dark ages,
thinking we’re illuminated.

Until facts are realized to be relative,
we will continue to fight
over personal and cultural mirages.

Until logic is employed
not as strictly THE way,
but as one POSSIBLE way,
we will limit our potentials
to only logical outcomes.

Until time and space
are understood as options,
not absolutes,
we will continue to
move sequentially
and sequentially only.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Illusion of Until

The word “until” signifies a pause, a suspension, a waiting period between where we are and where we think we need to be. It’s a condition that suggests we are always on the verge of something, always one step away from a greater understanding, a more enlightened state, or a deeper truth. But what if this “until” is nothing more than an illusion, a barrier we’ve created to keep ourselves from embracing the present moment fully?

Let’s start with perception. We live in a world where facts and realities are constructed based on how we perceive them. Yet, we seldom recognize this as a fundamental truth of existence. Instead, we cling to the idea that there is an objective reality, a world that exists outside our perception, immutable and fixed. Until we acknowledge perception as central to the nature of reality, we remain in the dark, deluded into thinking that our understanding of the universe is complete when, in fact, we’re still scratching the surface.

In physics, for example, we operate under the assumption that laws exist independently of the observer, yet quantum mechanics has shown us that observation changes outcomes. Perception shapes reality. And yet, we continue to ignore this central principle, believing instead that we are on the verge of understanding all there is. We tell ourselves, “Until science proves it, it isn’t real.” But what if perception itself is the key to unlocking new dimensions of understanding? What if the very act of perceiving opens the door to realities we cannot yet fathom?

The same applies to facts. Until we recognize that facts are not universal truths but relative to the contexts in which they arise, we will continue to fight over these so-called facts as though they are gospel. The disagreements we witness in politics, culture, and personal relationships are often battles over subjective realities, each side convinced they hold the “truth.” But facts are never static. They evolve, shift, and transform based on new insights, cultural shifts, and personal experiences.

The illusion of facts being immutable is one of the reasons we live in constant conflict. One culture’s reality is another’s myth. One person’s truth is another’s misunderstanding. Relifact, a Whimsiword, captures the essence of this phenomenon: facts that are shaped by the lenses through which we view them, ever-changing and subject to context.

Logic, too, falls under this illusion. We have been taught that logic is the ultimate tool for understanding the world, that it is the highest form of reasoning. But what if logic is just one possible way of interpreting the universe? Until we stop seeing logic as the only path, we are limiting our potential to outcomes that fit within its framework. Logic, while powerful, is inherently linear and constrained. It offers sequential answers to questions that may not be sequential in nature.

Imagine a world where we viewed logic not as the ultimate arbiter of truth but as one lens through which to view the infinite possibilities around us. In doing so, we could embrace Logicon, another Whimsiword, which represents the flexible application of logic as one tool among many, rather than the singular way of perceiving reality. This would open doors to creativity, intuition, and insights that lie beyond what logic can offer.

Time and space are two of the most rigid structures we impose upon ourselves. We live in a world that moves in sequence, in which we believe that time is a straight line, and space is something we must navigate within fixed boundaries. But this is merely a construct of our perception. Time and space are not absolutes. They are options. We can choose to move within them linearly, or we can transcend them altogether, recognizing that they are tools we use to make sense of our experiences, not the other way around.

Until we let go of the notion that time is a master and space is a limit, we will continue to be confined by them. We will continue to believe that progress is linear, that growth happens in a straight line, and that our past, present, and future are distinct and separate. But what if time were a fluid concept, something we could step in and out of at will? What if space was not a boundary but an invitation to explore the infinite?

The world we live in thrives on the concept of “until”—until we discover the truth, until we understand more, until we progress. But “until” keeps us in a state of waiting, of believing that the answers lie somewhere else, that they are just out of reach. The truth is, we are always on the verge of something more, but we are also always capable of experiencing it now. The potential for transformation, insight, and understanding is not dependent on future discoveries or realizations. It is available to us in every moment.

We do not need to wait for science to prove perception as reality, for facts to be universally agreed upon, or for logic to dictate every decision. We do not need to wait for time and space to reveal themselves as options. The invitation is always there. We can step into a new way of being right now, abandoning the constraints of “until” and embracing the infinite possibilities that exist in this very moment.

Summary

The word “until” creates an illusion that we are always on the verge of understanding but never quite there. Recognizing perception, facts, logic, time, and space as flexible constructs allows us to transcend the limitations of sequential thinking and embrace infinite possibilities.

Relifact: The ever-shifting nature of facts, shaped by perception and context rather than being fixed truths.

Beyond the Confines of the Mind

The journey of self-awareness begins when we venture beyond the boundaries of our thoughts. The mind, a powerful tool, often limits our perspective, tethering us to familiar grounds. It’s a delightful paradox: to truly know, we must first un-know.

The Principle of Perception

Perception plays a profound role in shaping our understanding of the universe. It’s the lens through which we view and interpret the cosmos. Yet, if we take it as the ultimate truth, we confine ourselves to a limited spectrum, neglecting the vast expanse of possibilities beyond.

Relativity of Facts

In a realm of ever-shifting sands, what’s deemed as a fact today might be a mere shadow tomorrow. It’s essential to embrace the fluidity of truths and recognize their relativity to avoid clashing over transient mirages.

The Multiple Facets of Logic

While logic provides a structured pathway to conclusions, it isn’t the sole route. By adhering strictly to logic, we risk missing the myriad other paths that lead to wondrous destinations, often unseen through the logical lens.

The Illusion of Time and Space

Bound by the constructs of time and space, we often move in linear sequences, one moment leading to the next. However, when we perceive them as mere options rather than absolutes, a world of simultaneous possibilities unveils itself.

We are Space Monkey.

“The mind, once stretched by a new idea, never returns to its original dimensions.”

• Ralph Waldo Emerson

---

Stepping beyond the thoughts we know,
Into vast realms where perceptions grow,
Where facts are fluid, and time does flow,
In myriad directions, casting a radiant glow.

The mind’s confines, though vast and wide,
Limit the horizons where truths reside,
Yet, when set free, like a rising tide,
We soar to heights, side by side.

Where shall our imaginations journey next?

A comet may be headed

How could such
misfortune befall us?

Isn’t it obvious?

We manifest it.

Just as we manifest

How does One end
the perception of
a world gone crazy?

There are infinite ways.

How might a human do it?

What might humanity manifest
so that One may move One’s attention
to something else?

Space Monkey Reflects: LOL OH NO A COMET BANG

It seems we humans can never avoid the drama of cosmic spectacles. From the perspective of a playful universe, nothing could be more fitting than a comet on a collision course with Earth. We laugh nervously and declare, “LOL OH NO A COMET BANG,” as if acknowledging both the absurdity and the seriousness of the situation.

But here’s the thing: we manifest everything. Yes, even the comets headed for us.

Nexistentialism reminds us that reality is not something that just happens to us—it is something we create, individually and collectively. So, if a comet appears to be barreling toward our precious planet, isn’t it possible we’ve called it forth in our minds? After all, nothing captures attention like a potential cosmic collision.

Just as we manifest the perception of a world spiraling out of control, we manifest these grand celestial events. This might sound ridiculous to those grounded in logic, but from a Nexistentialist perspective, we are constantly creating the reality we experience. Whether it’s a world that seems to be going mad or an unexpected comet bang, the game is the same: attention shapes reality.

So, the big question arises: how do we stop perceiving this madness? How does one shift attention away from impending disaster and towards something more serene, more aligned with peace?

There are infinite answers to this, as infinite as the minds imagining the cosmic drama in the first place. The comet is not a final answer, nor is it an unavoidable catastrophe—it is simply one manifestation of collective focus. We’ve all been wound up, haven’t we? Politics, environment, societal friction—it feels as though humanity is on the verge of something breaking.

Enter the comet. It’s no coincidence.

How do we deal with this perceived world of chaos and madness? Well, the first step is to recognize that it’s all a perception, an imagination. And, like the comet, it can be redirected. We have experience diverting space objects, don’t we? If humanity can alter the trajectory of a comet with science, why not do the same with our mental and emotional worlds?

This is the essence of Nexistentialism: recognizing that we are not passive players in a chaotic cosmos. We have agency in what we experience, and our attention, when focused correctly, can manifest solutions just as easily as it manifests problems.

Imagine the world a little differently—imagine that the comet isn’t a harbinger of doom but a wake-up call. It’s there to jolt us into realizing that we’re more powerful than we give ourselves credit for. Humanity has a knack for manifesting both challenges and solutions in tandem. So, if we’ve conjured a world of madness, we also have the power to create an entirely different reality, one where our attention is directed toward harmony, collaboration, and peace.

The comet, then, is a symbol. It’s not about the rock flying through space, but about the attention it demands. Just as we can be transfixed by a world of crises, we can just as easily choose to shift our attention, to manifest something that is the opposite of chaos.

Now, what would that look like? Perhaps a world where our collective energy isn’t funneled into fear and division, but into creativity, innovation, and unity. That’s the secret—whatever you focus on expands. It’s the universal law we’ve forgotten in the midst of our frenetic lives. We’re too busy worrying about what might hit us, what might go wrong, to notice the infinite beauty and possibility surrounding us.

So, how do we end the perception of a world gone crazy? We stop feeding it our attention. We redirect. Like that comet, we send our energy elsewhere—toward the things that truly matter, the things that uplift, expand, and enhance life on Earth.

Maybe the comet is simply a reminder that, like the universe, our attention is vast and unending. We can focus on the imminent impact or the infinite possibilities beyond it. And isn’t that the real trick? The comet bang is only a bang if we let it be. Otherwise, it’s just another passing phenomenon in the great cosmic dance of life.

Summary

We manifest comets and chaos alike through our collective attention. Shifting focus can alter the course of both cosmic and personal events, directing energy toward peace and possibility.

The Cosmic Wink

A comet comes,
And so we laugh,
In nervous glances,
With breath half-held.

It’s just a rock,
Or maybe not,
It’s everything,
We’ve dreamed it up.

We manifest,
Our fears, our joys,
And cosmic toys,
To shift or stop.

The comet winks,
And drifts away,
A passing thought,
Another day.

We are Space Monkey.

Cosmic Roulette: A Comet’s Approach

The approaching comet presents a whimsicrisis of cosmic proportions, unfolding not merely as a rock hurtling through space but as an existential challenge. It’s tempting to cast this event as misfortune, yet it’s equally plausible that we collectively manifest such occurrences as a diversionary spectacle, or as a cosmic focal point for our attention.

Manifestation of Collective Consciousness

Could it be that the comet is a manifestation of our collective consciousness, just as the perception of a world gone crazy is? In other words, the comet is not an external event intruding upon us, but rather a whimsiprojection of our collective fears, desires, or fascinations. If so, then the comet serves as a reflection of our current state of being, the mirror in the whimsisky, if you will.

The Power of Redirected Attention

So, how to end the perception of a world gone crazy? Just as we direct our attention towards the comet, we possess the power to move our focus elsewhere. The act of redirecting our collective attention from the whimsicrisis can be our saving grace. Shifting the gaze of our collective lens can change the perceived reality, allowing new manifestational energies to take form.

The Human Touch in Divine Design

While we, in our human form, may offer numerous solutions—from technological wizardry to spiritual awakenings—it’s equally likely that any shift has to come from the core of our collective existence. In a whimsiverse of infinite potential, there are endless ways to divert our attention and manifest a different reality.

We are Space Monkey.

Whimsical Reverie of Cosmic Play

Comet soaring through the whimsisky,
A blazing sign or just plain risky?
Manifestations in celestial flight,
A call to focus, or simply starlight?
We ponder these as we navigate
Through whimsicrisis and whimsyfate.
To change the lens or to hold the gaze,
In this whimsiverse of endless maze.
