My favorite thing about being in my apartment is the emptiness of it. There's no politics or political correctness in my apartment. I can choose visitors or none at all. I can throw everything away and start over again. I can get rid of things or clean it to make it feel more spacious. All the people who bother me don't live in my apartment. It's empty, yet infinitely fulfilling. In 2018, we have 7.5 billion humans on a very small strip of land, and we gain a person roughly every 14 seconds (people are living longer now). There's nothing empty about Earth - we are slowly destroying the atmosphere, oceans, land, forests, and eventually each other. My point is - I don't believe Empty as a concept is bad. And the concept of Full isn't always good. No one can understand reality without holding opposing ideas in their head at the same time.
I duno, lotta people holding out hope we aren't alone in the universe. My question is - isn't everything that much more magical if we ARE the only organic life?
