Recently, I was sitting in my office at work trying to plan the tasks for the following day when suddenly, a thought manifested in my head that I found rather distracting and felt it had to be documented as follows:

Each day of a person's life is spent preparing for the next day. And the next day is spent preparing for the next day. And so on, and so on, and so on...
But when does this string of seemingly endless ''preparing'', actually eventuate into completion of...something?
What started the cycle, and where does it end? Its like always trying to get somewhere that doesn't actually exist. When does this cycle end? When and where is the end of this string of seemingly endless preparing? Where does it eventuate into ''completion''?
Is that death?
Is this "cycle", life? And the "completion", death? Is it really that simple?
It sounds... So pointless! So meaningless! So boring! I refuse to be a slave to this cycle.
Maybe its just that human beings belong to a brain and mind that cannot handle the concept of a beginning and an end - "It has to be on-going, forever, and always so.'
e.g. "If there was a 'beginning' of the universe - what was there before? How could there be nothing before it existed? It had to begin somewhere".
The existence of that "somewhere", creates a paradox in which nothingness could not exist. Because to 'exist' is the opposite of nothingness. How could non-existence exist?

So maybe, this inability of our minds to accept concepts such as "non-existence" is the very thing that causes us to create and live in a society that is based around planning for planning for planning for the future.

Maybe if we can evolve past this inability, we will all finally be free.
