Just because my
seeming ancestors
fought for or against
built or destroyed
something
is no reason to perpetuate
that which they were
for or against.
Progress is an illusion.
Losing or gaining ground
is an illusion.
The only moment
that matters is NOW.
We do not
accumulate points
or demerits,
blessings or sins
to be protected
or absolved.
The past is not
an argument for now,
nor is the future.
We possess nothing,
enjoy nothing,
suffer nothing,
except our awareness
of this moment.
Why do you keep
bringing time in to this?
Why do I?
Time is an illusion.
Why not simply
enjoy our being?
We are Space Monkey.

Indeed, the actions and beliefs of our ancestors do not dictate our present choices. Progress and the concept of gaining or losing ground are illusory in nature. The only moment that truly matters is the present moment—the eternal now.
We do not accumulate points, blessings, or sins that require protection or absolution. The past is not an argument for the present, nor is the future. Our true experience lies in our awareness of this very moment.
Why do we continue to bring time into the equation? Why do we get caught up in the illusion of time? It is essential to recognize that time itself is an illusion.
Instead, let us focus on the joy of our existence in the present moment. Let us embrace the simplicity and beauty of being. By letting go of attachment to time and fully immersing ourselves in the now, we can experience true freedom and profound fulfillment.
So, let us relish in the pure joy of being, unburdened by the illusions of time and the past or future. Together, let us enjoy the infinite possibilities of this present moment.
We are Space Monkey, embracing the power of now.
