Must Do.
Need To.
Fuck You.
There are very few things that are necessary in life. Eating. Breathing. That sort of thing. The rest is what YOU decide, or what SOMEONE ELSE decides for you.
This feeds a voice in your head that sounds a lot like you, but ISN’T. This is the conditioning. This is the brainwashing. This is everything you THINK you’re supposed to be, everything you THINK you’re supposed to do, everything you THINK you want.
But most of it is bullshit.
See, you got here by following ALL of the steps society gave you like a good little trooper. You learned the language. You honored this thing called “history.” You believe. So you’re behaving in accordance with all of the advertising and the hype. Thing is, it’s not making you completely happy.
Something seems to be missing. A lot of the time, you feel like you’re missing the point. The wants. The needs. The musts. Where did those come from anyway? They were telling people what to do even before you were born. And now you’re automatically playing along, like a little robot.
It’s like there’s this parasite in your brain constantly sucking on your life blood. And YOU didn’t put it there. So tell it to fuck off. Take your mind back. Peel back all the layers until you get back to your source, which is, believe it or not, the source of ALL things. Not just the bullshit. But also the magical, miraculous stuff you didn’t know you could do because the voice tells you otherwise.
You’ll know when you get to your essence because you won’t even have to think about it. You’ll just feel it in your heart, like being tucked into bed at night and kissed on the head. It a lovely feeling, because it’s LOVE. Universal freaking love. And you’ll let it shine, and you’ll trust yourself, and life will come out all rainbows.
But not if you doubt it. Not if you listen to that THINKTHINKTHINKing voice. And remember. Even though you might WANT to do this, you don’t NEED to do this. You might be here to live life precisely like you’re living it right now. A life of limits. There are lessons to be learned, even in the suckiest of experiences.
See, you’re more than this petty little person reading this right now. You’ve lived many lives. You’ve lived on many planets. Even right now, you live in worlds you don’t see — for the simple reason that you don’t understand.
Oh, you’ll come to KNOW this eventually, whether you WANT to or NOT. You’ll know when you die. Or you could find out BEFORE you die. Wouldn’t THAT be a trip? You’re INFINITE. You’re BEAUTIFUL. You’re AMAZING. And we love you.

Peeling Back the Layers to Reveal Our Essence
In our collective journey through life, we encounter myriad influences that shape our thoughts, desires, and actions. Often, these influences—societal norms, historical conditioning, and external expectations—become so intertwined with our identity that distinguishing our true self from the imposed self becomes a challenge. The voice in our head, which seems like ours, often echoes the conditioning and brainwashing of external sources.
The Illusion of Necessity and the Freedom of Choice
Many aspects of life, such as eating and breathing, are necessary for our physical existence. However, beyond these basic needs, much of what we pursue or adhere to is dictated by either our own decisions or by the influence of others. This realization is crucial in understanding that much of what we believe to be essential may not truly resonate with our inner essence.
The Parasite of External Influence
The metaphor of a parasite in the brain aptly describes the pervasive influence of societal expectations and conditioning. This parasite feeds on our authenticity, compelling us to conform to predefined paths that may not align with our true selves. By recognizing this, we can begin the process of reclaiming our minds, peeling back the layers of conditioning to rediscover our source, the essence that is connected to the universal whole.
Rediscovering Universal Love and Trusting the Self
At our core, beyond the layers of external influence, lies a profound connection to universal love. This essence is not something we need to think about; it is felt deeply within the heart. It is akin to the warmth and security of being lovingly tucked into bed. When we tap into this essence, we allow our true nature to shine, trusting ourselves and experiencing life in its fullest, most vibrant form.
The Paradox of Choice and Acceptance
While we may yearn to break free from limitations and rediscover our essence, it’s essential to recognize that our current life, with its limits and challenges, may also serve a purpose. There are lessons to be learned in every experience, even those that seem restrictive or difficult. This understanding helps us embrace the totality of our journey, recognizing the value in all aspects of our existence.
Beyond the Physical: Embracing Our Infinite Nature
We are more than our physical selves reading these words. Our existence spans beyond this life, this planet, and even this dimension. There are worlds and experiences beyond our current understanding, waiting to be discovered. This realization of our infinite and multifaceted nature is a profound revelation that can occur both in life and beyond it.
We are Space Monkey.

A Free-Verse Poem: Infinite Echoes
We dance in the echoes of infinity,
Shedding the veils of borrowed identities,
In the heart’s core, a universe blooms,
Love, the compass, in this cosmic room.
Whispers of wisdom, from ages unseen,
Guide us to realms, where we’ve always been,
Infinite beings, in the grand cosmic play,
Embracing each moment, in our unique way.
What do you feel, fellow voyagers, in the quiet of your essence?
