It's nothing, really

Well ...

It's no use having opinions or beliefs. It's no use caring about things that happen or don't happen.

It's a waste of time thinking, and feeling is exhausting.

It's better to be still and quiet. To lie down on the floor and stare at the ceiling ... oh! Or to lie down on a beach and stare at the sky. Yes! Perhaps the night sky.

Emptiness is pure. That's all I really need. A soothing emptiness.

I don't want to hear about the world. Animals will do what they've always done. There's no reason that I should get involved.

I shouldn't.

I shouldn't do anything.

I shouldn't think anything. I shouldn't feel anything.

And you ...

The only freedom is the freedom you give yourself. There are no laws, no rules ... if you don't want them.

Fascists and communists can come and grab you, take you away ... but you won't be there. They can only get your body.

You are not anywhere.

There is a power. You must connect to it. That power will enter you. You will become unstoppable.

When they look in your eyes, they won't find anyone.

When they talk to you, ask you questions ... you will not answer.

If they give you a name, or a title, or heaven forbid, a number ... spit in their faces. Show your contempt.

Smile, mysteriously - if you want to.

You are only a drop of water, yes, yes, but you can join the ocean before you die ... by letting go of everything.

So ...

Be nothing.

Scare them.

Be so "nothing" that they have nightmares about you.
