To the reader,

I hope this message brings you some comfort and perspective.

Every living being—every single organism that has ever existed or will exist—is navigating life without a clear path or destination. There is no definitive right or wrong way to live; life is simply about surviving and finding meaning in our own ways.

Some individuals pursue power, wealth, and prestige, believing these things will bring fulfillment. However, in the vast expanse of the universe, such achievements are ultimately insignificant. When the universe meets its end, all our deeds and accomplishments will fade into oblivion.

So, please, try not to worry too much.

If you haven’t yet, consider the impact of bringing new life into the world. Understand that any new life will face the same challenges, confusion, and suffering that we all do. Instead, if possible, focus on uplifting those who are already here—those who are struggling, unwanted, and unloved. Helping others leads to a better life for everyone.

If you find yourself unable to help right now, that’s okay. Relax. Take a breath. Appreciate what you have, and live in the present. Take things moment by moment, step by step, and you’ll find your way.

Warm regards,

A fellow traveller

    Love this! I am going to print this up, frame it, and put it in my kids’ rooms so they can have a daily reminder. Thanks OP!

    PS. You shouldn’t take such long showers. It wastes water. 😉
