The Sun Doesn’t Illuminate

/ consciousness, dreams, metaphysics, reality /

Light isn’t actually luminous—it only becomes “light” when it’s perceived. The sun may be pouring out unimaginable energy, but without something to see it, it doesn’t “shine”. Without perception, there’s no color, no sound, no sensation—no experienced world at all. It’s not that the universe would be dark; it would be nothing. Like a dream world that feels ancient while you’re inside it, reality only seems to have a past. When every object we can perceive depends on perception, how real do you think anything is?

You wake from a dream—blue skies etched in memory, a universe with laws and history—only for it all to vanish when your eyes open. What if waking life is the same?

Time Managing

/ consumption, objects, perceptions, reality, thought /

Time slips through your fingers, wasted on the endless cycle of acquiring, maintaining, and securing objects. Each of them, whether a piece of technology or a simple household object, requires time managing it. You buy, you use, you clean, you fix—always with the nagging fear of losing or breaking what you’ve worked to gain. This cycle consumes hours, making you forget that time, like everything else, is fleeting. The more you own, the more time you spend managing. And yet, none of it lasts. You are not in control, but rather caught in the web of your own desires, gradually realizing that the objects you cling to only rob you of the very thing you value most: time itself.
