It's all consumption.

That's all I can figure given that the universe is growing at an ever accelerating rate.

That our job is to be like flowers--to consume whatever we want and let go of (or produce/excrete) whatever we're done with.

And not worry about it.

In fact, it may look like we can't do anything different.

Everyone gets caught up on consumption in the material plane, but that's actually the lowest form of consumption. Just like matter is the lowest form of energy.

My suggestion: (not that anyone has ever asked), my suggestion: consume the highest quality possible. Exactly what you want. And don't give a fuck about the fall out.

But just remember that the things you value most are high quality feelings. And that those are free for your to create and consume at all times. Not that consuming those should slow you roll--or stop you from shopping for whatever else your heart desires.

Just don't deny yourself a nap--or four months off--any more than you would an ice cream or new car.

Actually, an ice cream is likely just a substitute for you nap. You don't like how it makes you feel--just the taste.

The law of the universe is constant growth. Accceleration. That's physics, not metaphysics.

It's very helpful to look at natural systems. Production in all plants and animals is to get rid of waste. Consumption is healthy and primary, production somewhat necessary but secondary.

Our first breath is in, our last is out.

And hidden right under our noses is the truth: we can't take it anymore.

We get tired when we can't take, not when we can't give.

Don't stop taking.

The world was promised to be filled with the anti-christ in the last days. We just never thought that it would be us that was allied with the wrong side. We never thought it would be us that tried so hard to be pious that were spreading cancerous disbelief like it were some sort of balm.

It doesn't matter anyway. It's all growth. There's nothing we can do to stop or even slow our growth. In fact, it looks as though everything we do accelerates it.

So go ahead-believe or disbelieve. Consume or produce. Do anything you want.

But just remember that it's what you wanted to do.

And doing anything you want to do can only lead you to a more clear understanding of what you want.

And sooner or later, once you "can't take it anymore", you'll just give the fuck up and do what you actually want.

Want as in feel like that second--like take a left instead of a right--not want as in some grand scheme or plan of your life.

You know, all those things your mom told you were wrong.

Relaxing. Goofing off. Consuming. Indulging desires.

Giving up, letting go.

Whatever..
