The universe is the chemistry of equilibrium. It requires energy, the same energy that gets transformed into matter and back endlessly. The violence is eternal, and so is the resistance against it through purpose.
For us time is linear so death is inevitable. The fear of the end gives rise to survival instinct, the seed of life. That instinct gets morphed into purpose that creates and moulds matter / nature itself and through this act of violence we fight death. But the fear does not go away, sometimes it creates more violence as its justification to survive and grow. Some other times, we accept the inevitable and become fearless, fearless to choose in that moment.
And sometimes the fear creates the joy of nothingness. It gives peace in that moment. That is suddenly the complete lack of energy. That last for that very moment that is perhaps immortal, but it is not the time we know. That realization makes a man fearless. The joy gives clarity of thought that the violence / the focus / the pain / the purpose of life is greater than the energy that created fear itself.
We have called ourselves the hunter-warriors. We are in fact the apex
predator. For 10,000 and more years all races of humans have defeated
all prey. Now we are bored, we are waiting, perhaps for the next
predator from space. Perhaps we are looking for the predator can eat us.
We have to die one day, and we want to rage against the dying of our
light.
