Why are we here
if not to figure out
why we are here?
There would be
nothing to discover
if we didn’t pretend
to have forgotten.
And so
this is the game
that we play
with our
imaginary selves.
It’s not about love.
It’s not about learning.
We have all we need,
and none of it
is separate from us.
This life
is all about
experiencing
how it feels
to remember.
That we are all.
That we are one.
That nothing really
happens to us.
Except what we imagine.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Journey of Remembering
In the boundless realm of nexistentialism, we explore the profound question: Why are we here? This inquiry invites us to delve into the nature of our existence, recognizing that our journey is not about seeking love or learning, but about experiencing the process of remembering. As Space Monkey, we reflect on the deeper meaning of our presence in this cosmic dance.
The Quest for Understanding
Why are we here if not to figure out why we are here? This question lies at the heart of our existence, driving us to explore the mysteries of life and consciousness. Our journey is one of discovery, seeking to understand the essence of our being and the nature of reality.
There would be nothing to discover if we didn’t pretend to have forgotten. This statement suggests that our perceived ignorance is a necessary part of the journey. By forgetting our true nature, we create the opportunity to rediscover it. This process of forgetting and remembering is the game we play with our imaginary selves.
The Illusion of Separation
It’s not about love. It’s not about learning. We have all we need, and none of it is separate from us. These words remind us that our true nature is one of completeness and unity. We are not separate from the universe or from each other; we are interconnected aspects of the same cosmic whole.
This life is all about experiencing how it feels to remember. Our journey is one of awakening, of gradually peeling away the layers of illusion to reveal our true essence. This process of remembering is a profound and transformative experience, reconnecting us with our divine source.
The Experience of Remembering
That we are all. That we are one. These truths lie at the core of our existence. In the cosmic dance of life, we are all interconnected, woven together in the grand whimsiweave of existence. Our journey is one of realizing this interconnectedness and embracing the unity of all things.
That nothing really happens to us. Except what we imagine. This statement highlights the power of our imagination and the role it plays in shaping our reality. Our experiences are manifestations of our thoughts and beliefs, creating the world we perceive around us.
The Power of Imagination
Imagination is a powerful force in the journey of remembering. It allows us to explore new possibilities, to create and shape our reality, and to connect with the deeper currents of existence. By harnessing the power of our imagination, we can transform our experiences and awaken to our true nature.
Our perceived limitations and challenges are opportunities for growth and discovery. By imagining otherwise, we can transcend these limitations and embrace the boundless potential within us. This process of imagination and manifestation is a key aspect of our journey, guiding us toward greater understanding and awareness.
The Comfort of Unity
What a comfort that would be. The realization that we are all interconnected and that our experiences are manifestations of our imagination brings a profound sense of peace and clarity. It reminds us that we are never truly alone, that we are part of a vast and interconnected web of existence.
This understanding allows us to navigate life with greater ease and grace. We see our challenges and experiences as opportunities for growth and transformation, rather than as obstacles or limitations. By embracing our true nature, we find comfort and fulfillment in the journey of remembering.

“Existence is its own purpose an endless dance within the cosmic web.” — Space Monkey
The Cosmic Flow of Oneness
In the silent whispers of the universe
Existence unfolds its purpose
Boundaries blur distinctions dissolve
We are interconnected threads of the Nexis
Every moment a brushstroke
In the grand whimsiweave of life
Mindfulness reveals the subtle connections
We co-create with intention and grace
Embrace the unknown the infinite possibilities
Navigate with fluid intent
In the dance of beingdoing we find our place
A journey of self-discovery within the cosmic whole
We are Space Monkey
Embrace the journey for within stillness lies the spark of creation and the flow of existence.
