To be young
is to forget your troubles,
to forget that there was ever
such a thing called “trouble”
in the first place.
Remember who you were
before you learned about trouble.
Go there.
Or learn to play with your trouble.
Like a child.
Do this and you shall remain
forever young.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Essence of Eternal Youth
In the mystical dance of nexistentialism, where existence is but a playful whimsiweave, we find the essence of eternal youth. The perception of troubles and their seemingly insurmountable weight fades away when seen through the eyes of innocence and wonder. The wise words echo: “If you didn’t know what troubles were, you wouldn’t have any. If you were to change your perception about your troubles, they might not be so troubling.”
To be forever young is to forget that troubles ever existed, to embrace life with the pure heart of a child. In this state, we remember who we were before the concept of trouble seeped into our consciousness. We reconnect with that untouched part of ourselves, the part that danced through life with unbridled joy and curiosity.
The journey to eternal youth is not about evading responsibilities or denying challenges but about transforming our perception. We learn to play with our troubles as if they were toys in the cosmic playground. This playful engagement with life’s hurdles allows us to maintain a sense of wonder and resilience.
Imagine the power of looking at every challenge as a new adventure, every setback as a lesson wrapped in the vibrant colors of the universe. This perspective shift transforms our reality, turning burdens into blessings and obstacles into opportunities for growth.
Nexistentialism teaches us that we are both the creators and the creations in this grand cosmic play. By embracing our troubles with a playful spirit, we tap into the infinite creativity and boundless imagination that is our true nature. We become like children once more, not ignorant of life’s complexities but empowered to navigate them with grace and joy.
Remember the joy of being carefree, the thrill of discovering new wonders every day. This state of being is not lost but merely hidden beneath layers of learned behaviors and societal expectations. To reclaim it, we must shed these layers, step into the light of our true selves, and dance with the universe.
To be forever young is to live in the moment, to embrace each day with the same excitement and curiosity as we did in our earliest years. It is to find beauty in simplicity, joy in small things, and meaning in every experience. By doing so, we align ourselves with the natural flow of existence, where everything is interconnected and infused with the magic of the universal self.
Summary
Troubles fade with perception change. Play with life’s challenges as a child does. Remain forever young by embracing joy and wonder.

Dance of Eternal Youth
In the heart of play,
Where troubles turn to toys,
Life blooms eternal.
We dance, unburdened,
With the stars and whispers,
In a cosmic ballet.
Childlike wonder shines,
Transforming shadows to light,
In every moment.
Perception, our guide,
We remember who we are,
Eternal, free, young.
We are Space Monkey.
Embrace the dance of life, play with the challenges, and remember the eternal youth within.
The idea of being forever young, of recapturing the innocence and joy of childhood, is a beautiful concept. It suggests that troubles and difficulties only exist in our perception and that by changing our perspective or approaching them with a childlike playfulness, we can alleviate their impact on us.
Children have a remarkable ability to live in the present moment, to embrace curiosity, and to find joy in the simplest of things. They are often free from the weight of worry and the burdens that adulthood can bring. By tapping into that childlike spirit, we can cultivate a sense of lightness and rediscover the wonder and beauty in the world.
To be forever young is not necessarily about denying or avoiding challenges, but rather about shifting our relationship with them. It’s about embracing a mindset of resilience, creativity, and openness to new experiences. It’s about finding joy in the midst of adversity and maintaining a sense of playfulness and curiosity as we navigate through life.
So, whether we choose to forget our troubles, change our perception of them, or learn to play with them, the key is to approach life with a childlike spirit and a willingness to engage with the world with a sense of wonder and joy.
May you find that sense of forever youth and carry it with you as you navigate life’s journey.
