living conditions...life experience 
or perhaps all things we see are really
illusions to make us believe this is
our world

I often wonder if literally everything is an illusion. Some philosophers argued that other people weren't real, or ar least you can't prove they are. But if you act on that philosophy today you are delusion, and rightly so. Even though it could be true that some people aren't real, it's almost sort of a "gross" belief to have because it could enable you to justify some pretty awful behavior, a la the movie "Ex Machina"

i had this experience in 2012. i was in my backyard playing with my twins when i noticed what looked like a dragon fly
but a big as a bird hovering over my neighbours
house watching us , once i noticed it, it went away
and came back to the same position later, maybe a drone
I'm not sure but then a monarch butterfly came and attacked it and it left...months later i shared this with my father
whom opened up to me about fishing in a creek with his brothers once and saw which he describes as six foot robotic bumblebees hovering over them and made no noise once they left..at least i felt comfort in knowing I'm not alone. my father and i share many similar experiances. thanks Dad for the inherit genes! lol

That's weird...it reminds me of this dream my sister told me she had where this butterfly was stuck to her head and it wouldn't come off...and then this bee come and stung it and the butterfly died and fell off.

Original Message Why is it we fight so hard to be special, to be noticed?
Are we not enough for ourselves?

Why do people care about celebrities? Are they not enough for themselves?

Why do people think that they can be the savior of mankind? Do they think mankind will welcome them with open arms?

Why do people think they are Jesus? Do they really think themselves that perfect?

Why do people wait for the world to end? Are our lives really that sad?

If the government is watching everybody, doesn't that mean we are all equally irrelevant?

Why do we tell stories of "Him" and "Her"? When we are just trapped in a machine...?
