Do you live consciously—or does the world live through you?
A piece about reclaiming your spiritual agency in a digitized, engineered reality before life ends.
Not with fear, but with awareness, responsibility, and honesty.
A whisper, not a sermon.
A mirror, not an accusation.
(A lone voice whispers)
Have you ever wondered if your soul is just mirrored reflections?
Fragmented shards of an augmented reality.
A divine kaleidoscope of your own perceived ideas.
Of what to do to get to your version of heaven and how to avoid hell?
Overlaid onto a real-world environment.
Are you too logical to ever really understand, but just bravely parading around like another human being?
Locked into a social engineer's dream.
Trying to live within and under its dark, magical, mesmerizing spell.
Hypnotized by whatever is subliminally repeated on your handheld screens.
Slowly waiting unconsciously, before it's too late for spiritual understanding.
To return to just you.
To truly see there's more to life than chasing paper dreams.
Before you catch the last bus to take you home to atone.
In The Great In-Between, where you'll be asked,'
Did you live a clean life, or did something happen that was unforeseen?
That caused you to live temporarily unclean?
