I’ve had something of a revelation. My first real revelation. You know, the kind that changes your life. I don’t mean it will change my daily activities. I mean it will change my daily thinking. The really fucked up thing is it sprouts from my last post. Fucked up because I started doing this as a joke and now it is flipping switches in my brain. Well, not entirely, but it was certainly part of the process. I had a thought. A jumbled, incoherent thought that somehow turned into my last post. But a few days later, that original thought, mixed with the post, provided the catalyst for my Revelation. As stupid as it sounds, it was like somebody flipped a switch. I finally understood. No, I am not on drugs. And yes, I do feel it is appropriate to capitalize Revelation from this point on. I’m not fucking around here, this is serious business. Fuck you, like you give a shit.

 

     I do not mean this to be self indulgent babbling. Completely wrapped up in my own universe and sharing it because obviously every person on this planet is planning their schedule around me. Every person on this planet has me in mind. Every person on this planet is trapped in my orbit. Revolve around me. Right? That is how it works? Every little detail. Beyond what I am thinking, down to the tiniest, little, dumb fucking insignificant detail. What I ate for breakfast. What kind of shoes I am wearing. What CD I am obsessing over. What I dreamt about last night. What my relatives are doing. Do you want to know the plot of the last movie I watched? Of course you do. Do you want to know what I watched on TV last night? Of course you do. Do you want to know what I plan on watching on TV tonight? Mother Fucking of course you do. Like you give a shit?

 

     I’m not going to reveal It because that would diminish It. It would diminish It because I don’t have the ability to accurately describe It. The Revelation. I’m talking about the Revelation, not what I plan on watching on TV tonight. Also, because I’m selfish and revealing the Revelation would allow others to steal it and make it their own. You know what I’m talking about; you read or hear something that feels right. It feels so right that you want to make it your own. It gives you the intellectual upper hand. Or maybe it helps pick up girls better. Either way, the less people that know the real source, the better. Well this really is mine. Do you give a shit?

Re: Fuck yeah! Part II
Lol, knowledge is not meant to be hoarded. Besides, you never know, you might mention and everyone will go, "Oh, that? Yeah, we all worked that out when we were four." It's happened to me. I've had some big revelation, something just clicked and I understand something new about the universe, and then I realise that it's a concept that's been around since the beginning of time and common knowledge to every two-year-old.

Also happened in reverse. Some older person readies themselves a piece of wisdom that came to them from the divine and they say it with this wistful look in their eyes like they're gonna rock my world... and more often than not it's something I worked out when I was twelve.

I know what you mean about not being able to give it justice, mere words is not going to encompass it and to even try, you're might fail at getting across a vital aspect that makes the whole thing work and people will go, "Yeah, so?" or "I don't get it" or something like that which diminishes the profundity of your moment, when the moment does not deserve to be diminished. There are things I keep to myself for that reason, I want to share it but I don't want people to take it for granted or not give it the due it deserves, so I remember it and maybe in a day or a month or a year or five years or ten years from now, the words will come to me to properly express this piece of knowledge I've discovered.

I don't know what you mean about wanting to keep it for myself so that it belongs to you, though. Because if it's a truth you've discovered, then it was true before you came up with it and it would have been true if you had never come up with it. So wanting credit for discovering it, yeah, that I understand, but you can't get that if you keep it to yourself. But something that is truth does not belong to anybody. It just is. And if you can find it, so can someone else, because if it's a truth, then it's there to be found. And if it's not a truth, well, it's like you said, who gives a shit, anyway?
