Guest blogger: the burden of creation

Why bother with alt text?

Write a blog post? Something uplifting to inspire other authors?

Why?

What is the point?

In the vast expanse of existence, where the stars flicker in indifference and the cosmos echoes with the silence of meaninglessness, there exists a solitary figure, burdened with the task of creation. That figure is me, a depressed nihilist, staring at a blank page, grappling with the futile endeavor of writing.

Writing, they say, is a form of expression, a means to communicate thoughts and feelings. But what thoughts can I communicate, and what feelings can I convey, in a world devoid of inherent significance? The words I type onto this screen seem hollow, devoid of substance, like echoes in an empty void.

Every keystroke feels like a Sisyphean task, a futile attempt to imbue meaning into a world that inherently lacks it. What purpose does my writing serve in a universe that operates on the indifferent laws of physics, devoid of cosmic significance or divine purpose?

The weight of existence bears down upon me, crushing my spirit with its sheer indifference. The blank page mocks me, a reflection of the emptiness that pervades my soul. I am but a speck of dust in the vast cosmic arena, my existence fleeting and inconsequential.

Yet, despite my existential despair, I am compelled to write. Perhaps it is the last vestige of defiance in the face of absurdity, a futile rebellion against the meaningless void. Or perhaps it is simply a habit, a routine ingrained in my weary bones, a distraction from the relentless march of time towards oblivion.

It’s better than chocolate

Chocolate

OK, maybe not. But you can’t write with chocolate. It would make a mess.

But as I struggle to string together sentences, I cannot shake the feeling of futility that pervades every word. What is the point of my writing, when the universe itself is indifferent to my existence? Who will read these words, and what impact will they have on the grand tapestry of existence?

In the end, I write not out of a sense of purpose or meaning, but out of sheer necessity. It is a cathartic release, a fleeting moment of solace in an otherwise bleak existence. And so, I continue to type, my fingers dancing across the keyboard in a desperate attempt to make sense of the senseless, to find meaning in the meaningless.

But deep down, I know that my efforts are in vain. For in a universe governed by chaos and entropy, where stars are born and die in an endless cycle of creation and destruction, what significance can one individual’s writing hold? None, perhaps. And yet, I write. For in the act of writing, I find a glimmer of hope, a fleeting illusion of purpose in an otherwise meaningless world.

Ah, but I had almost forgotten. Something uplifting. Well… have a nice day. 🙂
