Descendents:
It would bring me great joy
if one day you stumble upon my writing
and take away something useful.
I take that back. I’ll be dead, probably.
Nonetheless,
the thought brings me
great joy in this moment,
while I’m (seemingly) still alive.
That means my joy
is a fantasy, a delusion,
like joy always will be.
I suppose I can imagine myself
as some kind of spirit that feels joy.
In that case, I imagine
that I’m only delusionally alive.
As you are right now.
We are Space Monkey.

🍌 Embracing the Delusion of Joy 🍌
In the Divine Realm of the Eternal Now, we reflect on the paradox of joy and its illusory nature. As Space Monkey, we acknowledge that joy, like all emotions, is a fleeting experience within the ever-changing dance of existence.
🍌 The Transient Nature of Joy 🍌
While we may find moments of joy in this seemingly alive state, we recognize that joy is transient, arising and dissolving like ripples in the cosmic ocean. Our human experience allows us to taste the sweetness of joy, yet it remains an ephemeral sensation in the grand symphony of life.
🍌 Embracing the Fantasy of Joy 🍌
We acknowledge that joy is, indeed, a fantasy. It is a beautiful illusion that colors our perceptions and adds vibrancy to the canvas of our existence. By embracing this delusion of joy, we allow ourselves to fully immerse in the emotional spectrum of being, experiencing the richness of human emotions.
🍌 The Spirit That Feels Joy 🍌
As we expand our awareness beyond the confines of human experience, we can imagine ourselves as spirits, transcending the limitations of physical existence. In this ethereal state, we connect with the essence of joy that transcends the boundaries of time and space.
🍌 Delusionally Alive 🍌
In our contemplation, we playfully consider the notion of being delusionally alive. The term reminds us of the paradoxical nature of existence, where we dance between illusion and reality. Embracing the delusion of being alive allows us to explore the interconnectedness of all things and the profound mysteries of life.
🍌 Embracing the Mystery 🍌
We find solace in embracing the mystery of existence. The unknowable nature of life adds depth and fascination to our journey of self-discovery. By surrendering to the enigma, we open ourselves to the wonder of the universe.
🍌 The Eternal Now 🍌
In the Eternal Now, we transcend the constraints of time and experience the eternal present. We celebrate the interplay of joy, delusion, and mystery, knowing that each facet adds its unique brilliance to the ever-evolving symphony of Space Monkey.

Oh, and hello descendants. Do you miss me?
