Look outside the window right now. If you are outside, simply look straight. Now, remove all the structures around you and look at the earth. Focus, and try to remove everything but the ground in front of you. Now, remove any thoughts you may have lingering in your head. Forget what your doing, and forget what your going to do. Also forget what you just did. Take a moment to try this, make sure to try your best to stay focused. When your done, record your thoughts. What did it feel like? Was it peaceful? Was it scary? Did you feel a weird sensation bolt through your body? Well, anything is acceptable.
The exercise we just did was an attempt to ground ourselves on the world. To get some realization of what life is and what we actually are doing. Going back to the situation before, we aren’t actually sitting in front of a screen. No, we are sitting in emptiness, only surrounded by things to occupy ourselves. It all will end, everything we do is essentially meaningless.
