Fear Not Life Is Just A Ride

I'm reminded by a short youtube clip at the end of comedic skit from Bill Hicks (1961 - 1994) who quoted a interesting aspect that I think most folks aren't even remotely aware of. Life, it isn't as complicated as it looks or feels it may seem real at first, however the more it goes on you begin to realize that in the grand scheme of things it's just like getting on ride at an amusement park.

The World is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it’s real, because that’s how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round, and it has thrills and chills and is very brightly colored, and it’s very loud.
And it’s fun, for a while.


Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they’ve begun to question, ‘Is this real, or is this just a ride?’, and other people have remembered, and they’ve come back to us and they say ‘Hey, don’t worry. Don’t be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride.’ and we
KILL THOSE PEOPLE.


“Shut him up! We have a lot invested in this ride! SHUT HIM UP! Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account, and my family. This just has to be real.”


It’s just a ride.


But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that. You ever noticed that? And let the demons run amok. But it doesn’t matter, because … It’s just a ride.


And we can change it anytime we want. It’s only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. A choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear wants you to put bigger locks on your door, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead
see all of us as one.


Here’s what we can do to change the world right now, to a better ride:


Take all that money we spent on weapons and defense each year and instead spend it feeding, clothing, and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded, and WE CAN EXPLORE SPACE, TOGETHER, BOTH INNER AND OUTER, forever … in peace.
