Everything you evern loved, were proud of

[GeraldParticipant 3642]

Am re-starting a classic, Chuck Palahniuk novel and on pages 15-18 this jumped out at me:

Crying is right at hand in the smothering dark, closed inside someone else…

When you see how everything you can ever accomplish will end up as trash.

Anything you’re ever proud of will be thrown away.

These lines struck me today, as recently with my wife passing I’ve really had to ponder mortality, and what I plan to leave behind. Not much, and right now not much would remain of me if I was gone. I have no biological children, few relatives and have made no major contributions to the world…

But that is ok. I am focused on myself, my needs now and what I want to do. I realize everything I’ve ever done will be looked down on or be ‘trashed’… my marriage was well down that path, I don’t own a home or property or anything valuable, and my contributions to society are minimal…

And I’m ok with that. I think as men who are learning (or have learned) to go our own way we have a new outlook that departs from society as a whole. Bettering a festering cess-pool only goes so far, when you are cast out of it.

So men, live for what you want, what you need, and take care of yourself. The effort you extend to care for others will not live long after you are gone. Strive to do amazing things for you, for accomplishments you want to achieve, not for others, not for society, as it has cast us out.

No longer can we walk away, we must run. Remove the motive power.

I have no children, own no property, have left no mark on this world.

So what.

Is it not just the human ego that needs to leave a ” mark” in the world?

I personaly am more interested in whats on the other side.

I get that, but I don’t believe in the other side at this point, perhaps that will change in time, as I did when I was younger. Ego is a problem, and maybe that is my maturity level still not being where it should be.

Quite often when I watch an old movie, I remind myself that probably EVERYONE in that movie, and whomever had pretty much anything to do with is DEAD, and so aren’t ALL THEIR CONCERNS, WORRIES, GOALS, DESIRES, ETC. ETC.ETC.

DO WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO DO, DO FOR YOURSELF.

EVERYTHING/EVERYONE IS TEMPORARY.

TRY and EXIST IN THE NOW–MOMENT TO MOMENT–EASIER SAID THEN DONE ESPECIALLY FOR A MAN THAT IS ALWAYS LOOKING AND PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE

Gerald, if this line of thinking bothers you even a bit… you should remember that it is NEVER too late to DO something about it.

You’ve made a mark here at MGTOW. You should give yourself some credit (and grace).

[PistolPeteParticipant 27143]

Nonsense! The very fact that you exist means you have accomplishments…not contributed to the world? On the contrary my friend. Who cares if you don’t have kids…neither do I. Your existence is not defined by having children. That is blue pill thinking. So take heart my friend. You have a long way to go in this life and who knows what tomorrow may bring.

[CarnageParticipant 22113]

It’s Ll bulls~~~ buddy.

Tesla? Einstein? Newton? The soldiers? ALL DEAD.

Is not about your mortality, is the fact that everyone is mortal.

The bottom line is FEAR, we are afraid of death, soo we try to leave a mark, we try to become immortal, but is only an ilusión.

Some day our son will die, it will turn into a cold white midget star and absorb this planet and destroy everything it is.

IT DOES NOT MATTER.

Embrace death, my god, embrace oblivion, peace and quiet at last… but not before the time is right, why work for something that is free anyway?

To those following me, be careful, I just farted. Men those beans are killers.

[CarnageParticipant 22113]

Do whatever you wasn’t, why we torment ourselves?

I wanna be Superman, but superman is not real, I don’t wake up depressed every morning becouse “I’m not superman “

No one has a mark anywhere, no one made no contribution to society, no one did s~~~, it doesn’t matter, is all bulls~~~.

Contribution? The why we here? Why does MGTOW exist? Why s~~~ is f~~~ed up?

See is all bulls~~~, it doesn’t matter, I’m a few year you will be dead and if you did something or nothing in this word IT ALL WILL BE THE SAME.

Why we live for? The same reason we see a movie… is a waste of time, is improductive, but is fun and is distracting. That is life a movie, a comedy at that.

Laugh at it, because it doesn’t matter, try not to feel anything but what you want, becouse if doesn’t matter why not choose to feel good?

To those following me, be careful, I just farted. Men those beans are killers.

I’m with Carnage.
It’s all an occupation of time.
Individuals are born, grow old and die.
Civilizations do the same.
I hope I’m here to see this current incarnation of civilization go face down, ass up in the most fiery way possible.
F~~~ this world. Take everything you can from it and leave it nothing.

Why vote for a lesser evil? #ICETHEMOUT

everything I was proud of was stolen, signed away, lost or unavailable. Nothing I own is older than July 24, 2009.

Me too, man. At one point when I was 15 and bullied daily, I was so interested in what the next journey would be that I didn’t care if I died that same second. Life was f~~~ing bulls~~~ back then, got much better from 16 to 25 and now it’s bulls~~~ once more, but I lost the train of thought from back then.
